They fear the truth in this place
Ignorance is here

History tells many lies:
Ourstory speaks the truth.

Premium MemberTo The Moon Above


To the moon above
On mission of grand conquest
Men in  lunar launch

Defining moment
In “One giant leap for mankind”
Prints in lunar dust

Stars and Stripes planted
The flag flies but does not wave
In moon’s atmosphere

In that adventure
Proud men and women served
I was among them

Soon many giant steps
Were made on terra firma 
To visit again 

Time has written much
Since the day of that landing
About ships in space

To the realm of stars
Will mankind rise to the task
Peace in hostile space

Premium Memberbridge to virginia

watch out for mothman 
his beady red eyes shine bright 
towering the bridge

fabled desert land
mere whisper of what once was …
humble Timbuktu

event horizon
revealing outer limit
of singular force

swirling cosmic dust
genesis of star’s being
clouds stellar ceiling

space lying between
all that can be felt or seen
formed that which has been

vivid human dream
makes further consciousness seem
outside nature’s scheme

reality found
vast universe comes unwound
ever outward bound

Premium MemberA Bad Friday For Jesus

What humans call ‘Good Friday’
Should be named
A ‘Bad Friday‘ for Jesus
Our brother
Who bravely died for our sins.
