Thank God... the taunting is diminished,
Because that is not what life is all about,
We are meant to connect and give but you made this all about yourself,
Maybe if you realized from the door that that was the key to open your heart,
Instead of allowing your fears to fester for years and studying to distract from

The Giveaway Song
As her EarthDay drum calls out
to inside outside severance
Amid EarthTribe's gathered laughter
and sorrow,
speaking
and listening,
singing
and silent witnessing,
Earth's wealth
leaks nutritional health
gifts sharing value with every messiah
in sunshine circles
of care giving
and receiving
sacred shifts
toward cherished bright esteem.
In this sacred win/win culture
of indigenous compassion,
all celebrants cooperatively steward
gifts circling through reciprocity
and back toward MeWe integrity
again.
We dance in sacred circles

Grey/green eyes, his sensuous lips enticed
Everything changed within, soul sacrificed
As she pressed both hands to her cheeks
Could such a love develop within weeks
Her heart and mind in a constant turmoil
Smiling, a knowing louche grinning

A Giveaway
The gaudy beauty of the villas with
new money blazons on the pediments,
the Moon over the garden, the sea breeze,
orchids in bloom - they're all the elements
of the confusing game to lure me to
a point of no return. The sweetest lies,
the jewelry of tears, big and true
enough to kiss them - that's what underlies
your game of

A Lot To Giveaway
…….a lot to giveaway
Nothing is sweeter than restored faith,
as too, the restored hotplate, the crashed computer
now renewed by the turn of a screw.
The electrician, the technician who overthrew such
arrogant technology, and me faithless, yet
I remember, time standing still, eternal,
Summer’s afternoons, in boarding school
left with only paper, scissors and glue and
the enchanted

Dead Giveaway
I look through these trinkets
You've collected since birth
I'm left here to wonder
Do they have any worth
People didn't matter
For them you had no use
It was things you cared for
people you gave abuse
Your life partially lived
Didn't end soon enough
You created pain
In the pursuit of stuff
Dead as a doornail
your things left behind
Given away to others
Now in death you
