Fantasy DreamsIllusions are smoke and mirrors;
the sky's black, and yet, we see blue.
And like sheep, we're led by shearers;
whose reality blocks our view.

And the lambs rush to the slaughter,
unaware reality bites.
A taboo magic elixir;
drugs hold anxieties in check.

Answer Me ThisAmericans have overcome many great trials,
But harbor too some persistent denials.
Stubbornly clutching long-held positions,
Over time have become national traditions.
Pride in the sanctity of individualism,

Unresolved core beliefs, rationalization,
Test the thinking of this citizen nation.
Answer Me This:
Why do so many use the...

Engaging the Family LaundryPerhaps infertile
incomplete
unwashed memories
of elder v younger,
Goliath v David,
crusades v communion
critical, yet part of chronic, events
speak extended family disengagement truth
to powerful dirty laundry engagement failures.

in mind and heart
and what I hope I will eventually learn
from mistakes in anemic compassion
