Braver Days, Brighter Ways
giggling swaying around carelessly...
i feel my life in a state of fantasy...
few days before, i recall..
i swear, i thought i be in a downfall...
grateful and hopeful, i am..
glancing around seeing miracles charm..
God must have opened the door..
thus, encouraging me to follow...
it is not of my own accord..
to my God, i trust He mark in record...

ComPassion's Braver Angels
Impressive values,
like love,
claim resources that liberally breed
ecological
natural
physically happy health
and conservatively feed
emotional
spiritual
mentally glad wealth.
Oppressive disvalues
like homophobia and racism
and sexism and ageism
and ableism
and monoculturing disregard
for threats of global anthro-supremacist ecocide,
express what we are against
because these are sources of sadness,
bad health suppressions,
sad impoverishing depressions,
even mad disrepairing
retributive repressions,
investments in revenge,
apartheid demands for militarized retribution,
negative win/lose 0-sum
closed system reparations
repeating

O'Yes, Braver Still Are Well-Hidden Scribes
O'Yes, Braver Still Are Well-Hidden Scribes
Only the empty darkness dared to taunt
for even the great hero had his wants
not for gold or any treasure at all
yet is not common for greatest heroes to fall
What about those brave that live not to see
the empty phoniness of both you and me
O'Yes, braver still are well-hidden scribes
Are we

Braver Man
He lived hard
Lived fast
But luck was
Rarely his
He got hurt
Many times
And with time
The pain grew
Till one day
He did do
Some act I
Could never do
Took a gun
With one shot
Stopped the pain
Made it end
That I could
Never do
He was
A braver man

Braver Days
I'll see myself as a warrior reborn
Bolder than starlight gleaming overhead
An enlightened trail when betrayal’s sped
By washing away a hurt past once lost
Like a birthing of inner courage shown;
As shadows of angst turn to grit, atoned
Before time's painful wounds are spread.
Where belief and esteem together ring
Alive with my need for justice, restored
To

Braver Is the Lonely One
Braver is the lonely one
Rare it is to see the sun
All is played inside a home
Vast is sleep; he sleeps alone
Eerieness, the air is felt
Random thoughts indulge lost help
Inner child has been so grown
Slowly knowing death's a throne
Time is numbing to his mine
Hands are aging; thumbing lines
East is near, but West he wants
Lonely is the

Braver Men
Braver Men
have stalked the earth
for all its precious gold
but I would claim
a higher aim
in riches men don't hold
Greedy Men
have sought to harbor
more than they can haul
but miss the part
that makes the heart
the lightest load of all
Stronger Men
have sailed the seas
in search of the unfound
but I might tip
they turn their ships
for more familiar ground
Aimless Men
have struck
