Remember when we believed a NYC street block was too far? 50th, 51st, 52nd, and so on... well, state boundaries stack those blocks, and now there are thousands, maybe millions, blocking. My preschool days taught me how to stack the reds, the blues, and the greens of building blocks but when I would finish, they...

Caleb, 1665 Graduate of Harvard Caleb Cheeshahteaumuck
Man stands high – in Creation - but higher yet she wants to stand! Before Columbus, trees stood like Sentries, minding communications; Once these lands were taken, WE hear much of “Supply & Demand,” Nations weep: gone the Three Sisters and B.

High Noon At Harvard Yard
Tis the late June day Which bring flocks Their subconscious intentions Obfuscated by the lingering dimensions Flaccid ideals and breezes Traversing gingerly through The ancient elms Seeded by the pulps of history They pray, with each scrape Of their prescient footsteps For the sparkle, the brilliance Those ghostly matters provide in perpetuity The heat emanating from yearnings Executed by minute's drive From understandings siloed In the labyrinth of mind's eye...

It cries when it's...

Harvard Night Introspect (Walls Vs. Bridges)
Harvard, at night - You still sit on the lawn with the weight of both structures alive in your arms Rachmaninoff's tears turning black at your hips The counting of friends on your five finger tips Sawdust and poetry, building the wall A thousand feet wide, a thousand feet tall Running for life times, for miles, a span built in your introspect,...
