Country farmers according to dad
Upon one’s head a flat cap
To face the sun crafty chap
Whence to tell one the time deemed the fad.

Still bearing fruits;
Generous delights

NDP crowd
Massive tapestry;
Community celebration

Each passing year
Affirms our country;
Diversity in oneness

~~~~~~~~~


We celebrate
Our little red dot;
Gratitude remembers

So much to see
So little time;
Familiar complaint

~~~~~~~~~


Fireworks display
After The Pledge;
Poignant philosophy

Politics means action
Mere words concede;
Happy results count

~~~~~~~~~


Propaganda campaign
True to life stories gel;
Go beyond good intentions

Vespia, my dearest sister-in-law
I write to reveal my emotions raw

Victulus has asked me to wait for him
He is travelling to Herculaneum

How I do wish he could have taken me
Not as a maid but as his wife to be.

Now jealous thoughts are rising in my breast
They...

The golden rule, to any fool
Is not a silly test
To shine the light
Of truth and right
Is worthy of our best

The earth and sky, may signify

The spirits we renew

strangers tend to ignore me
searching blindly for glory
tattered hands holding half a story
but surely; the opemists' plan 
was escape these sinking sands
and not flash brands as
burning ticks cross my hands
the cost is lost in these lands

Your smile speaks a lovely language...
Even the deaf can decipher the message.
It is not locked in your lips...
From your sweet soul it slips...
Your flawless face scintillates the stage.

To be lost in warm...

The Universe is the only self-referential reality
in the phenomenal world.
It is the only text
without context.
Thomas Berry

And yet
could no the same
be said of time

without spatial context?

And could this universality of time as text
also become our co-gravitating unity
through co-arising diversity
of spaciating polypathic context?

Octavia Butler
defined God
as Change.

To provide clear communication 
Without it, there would be a cloudy scenery 
Along with mass frustration 
When words are unspoken 
Hearts are frozen 
Lots of ambiguity in the air 
Along with mass confusion...

I once met a gal in the town of Monterey
Though I had to leave, she begged me to stay
Our time together was delightful,
I found her to be quite insightful
To preserve my happy life ... I hurried away.
