the sky has a rip in it today
and I don't think I am here
a little boat rocks it's sides in the wash
and people grow cold...

I know that is what you are trying to do until you don’t lose.
     Upset the balance of a rightful world to
Destroy a focus that remains visionary to 
     Defeat the purpose of eternal peace.
Against the odds,...

LIGHTS ABOVE LAKE SUPERIOR

moonrise
pours caramel
splashing across the lake,
reflecting aurora's pining

No willows weep along this craggy shore

Winter's unforgiving shock no test for
 weaker limbs

Pine trees and the barren Birch remain, their
hearts cold

Steely eyes glimmer with icy stares at Raven's
     perch           ...

Other men wonder how I make women mesmerize
Bigger than most men similar to football player size
I begin to share my secret and they still don’t realize
It’s my pleasant desirable qualities
To her liking
Suited to her end or purpose
Having the ability to treat her well
Indicative of future...

...upon emerging from the fury of 
swimming just a few feet out in the Grand 
Old Lady


Boldly upright in surf
Fog races in and cloaks her surface
Alive! I grip the bottom for the crush
As waves crash my glistening face
Freedom has found me!

What evidence do we have that businesses receive financial as well as other nutritionally healthy benefits, 
by co-investing cooperatively within health-developing community cultures?

What are financial benefits for faith-in-health communities 
both internal to corporate anthrosupremacist monocultural identity 

and healthcare ecosystemic unincorporated polycultures
in which residents/workers/recreators/players/worshippers do not...

Lake Superior


Strong- shouldered waves crested
the rocks below Split Rock Lighthouse
with frothering glee-

happy to be home among the orange-lychen,
basalt-boulders  and Gulls-

high above the lake, mountainous columns
of clouds drifted in legions towards Canada,
against a sky so blue, no reasons were needed-

where the sun peaked through, sparkling
diamonds...

The world is a lave a pallet of creation
Looking into space, a futile distraction 
The earth is in space and all it represents 
Looking upward wondering ignoring the obvious 
The pattern of nature the key to life 
Everything in nature release us from strife

SUPERIOR – not the lake

To me there are no persons drearier
Than those who think themselves superior,
Think everything in life that they do
Is a little, no, MUCH better than you (do)

She didn’t come right out and make a claim
Not sophisticate was to give it name
As example...

I could not do what you are mandated to do
every day on society's justice bench,
weighing retributive justice 
against restorative healing.

I cannot look with any comfort
at police
and correction officers'
routinely criminalizing vocations,
and courtroom injudicious levying of fines
against the young
and black
and brown
and homeless

Punishing prison sentences
for the most obvious...

If you think that you are far more superior then the next person

Written By Dean Masciarelli

If  you think that you are 
far more 
superior than the next person

Then you truly are the foolish one 

Just remember nothing that you have 
ever...

Women are most definitely
the more superior gender of my human specie,
at least in the area of a more higher level of spirituality.
Men on the other hand are the more superior gender of my specie
in the areas of self absorption, hate and greed.
That in no way...
