Premium Member Different or the Same
Ever since the days when the world was still young, The same stories were told, the same songs were sung.

We share the same triumphs throughout the...

As Easter approaches, a treasured memory surfaces. While the commuter trains rolled by a few blocks away; While the stadium of the Chicago Cubs prepped for baseball; A most holy event was taking place that has followed me a life time. It was not a routine ritual, and I don't really remember the occasion, But I rather think that it was...

Carefully we planned for the big day Oblique qualms and doubts drove me away Moody and thoughtless insensitivity Maudlin thoughts curbed the festivity Onerous thoughts like small transmitters Now revealed my flutters and flitters Ashamed, you admitted you had the jitters Laughingly we both had learned Intimacy shared is intimacy earned Treasuring our love, our life unknown You and I, together we’ve grown....

Commonality

Commonality
Common Place and Common Time What we are is concubines A lesser and part of now A lesser and part of here Dictated by the Sun Dictated it's quite clear Kept alive by its warmth Kept alive by its grace We act as if we do When we act by laws ordained You are here right now Right now you are here Simply aware of what...

Hidden Commonality
If we all want what we can't have, How is it that There's any happiness Anywhere? How can you just stop Looking for that thing you never found? Or does it really end? Do they play pretend? Is everybody secret-searching Hoping they can stop the hurting Now Somehow? I love to see all those blank faces Passing me in simple places I go everyday. Maybe there's a way To get inside...
