Start and end each day,
and life,
with a taoist egg.

I doubt my eggs are religious.

No, but they are natural,
organic incubators, 
co-arising nondual yolk form
with transparent regenerative function,
cosmological purpose, maybe,
if you're a chicken,
or a turkey, 
or a sitting duck.

So you say. 
I guess these eggs are merely...

"Another Better World"


These little sins 
you smoothly skip across the waters of fairweather lives 
like darkness hidden underneath deadly white lies,
like throwing pebbles casually across The Lake of Tears
that reflect rippling rings rapidly racing outwards 
that touch the hearts and minds of Other,
those beings standing...

Written In the Sky
Do you hear them?

Woodland creature amidst the thicket, drawn, oblivious to indifference beneath 
heavenly luminescence.
And I, baring admiration in acknowledgement, plea to the awakening of your 
fellow ear as companion.
Fields breathe life of their expulsion.
Shall we bask in the glorious change of season, on a...

Premium Member Why Kites Fly
Fear and violence and guilty judgment
display synaptically sharp,
competing "Loser!" skittish economies.
Love and active peace sustain buoyance,
resilience,
robustly revolving away
from red skies of mourning;
cooperatively mutual Win-Win
ecology of evolution.

I want so badly to fly my competing belief kites,
and faith,
for my string to remain confidently taut,
vibrantly humming and singing...

Premium Member When I Was Young
When I was young, I was so very sweet.
I never tattle-taled or smarted off.
I shared with others when I got a treat,
and at my sisters I would never scoff.

I loved to help my mother, so I did
the many chores she gave me happily.
I was so...

Will You Come
Will you come?

Will you come?
To quest,
Knock my door
Come and play the flute 
Unforgettable memories,
And forgiven melancholic throb
Now shrouded in mist.

Those nights, all perfumed in lavender 
Gone mornings, drizzled quilt the rooftop
The room was curtain in pearls and whites
Grey ashes stained the fireplace 
Everything taled their...

Premium Member The Way We Played
Boys made noise
  Girls hated curls
Toy soldiers for boys
  Real pearls for girls

Boys teased girls
  Girls tattle-taled
Moms got angry
  Boys went to 'jail'

Confined to their rooms
  Revenge boys planned
Girls fairly doomed
  By boys outmanned...

Red Tailed Hawk

    Talk about strutting your tail-feathers, 
and using your assets to get what you want,
when calling card
is no gambit or bluff to flaunt-
In the crimson sky, read taled, 
"Glinted Eye", air siren wails 
like a little Banshee crossed with Harpy Eagle 
getting...
