After waving fire is cast at stability
After scorched wood cracks its last cry
After last ash touches down, tranquility
After light of dusk waves its goodbye
When the ashen remains settle out
When rain of twilight washes away
When days turn months born of drought
When a survivor returns to his stay
Then the broken parts are collected
Then volunteers help to rebuild
Then a newer chapter's directed
Then victim can again feel fulfilled
It was fire who made all that he wears
It is inferno that wants him to perish
It indiscriminately burned all his shares
It is those who followed he'll cherish

May we be blessed to understand
The words of Hubert Reeves…
a famous Canadian Astrophysicist…
allow me paraphrase what he believes:
We are a most insane species…
(he writes so beautifully)
we worships invisible gods
while destroying a nature we can see…
Unaware that the nature we’re destroying…
(so indiscriminately)
is the very God we’re worshiping…
the one we cannot see.

Define or describe a Circle
Okay here goes
I will try and give it my best shot
A Circle per day
Is when people say for example who have
Been and experienced first hand
Oppression any form of discrimination or abuse
Modern generations more liberated and emboldened
Somehow appropriate for and to serve themselves
And end up becoming the oprresors and abusers
Discriminating , indiscriminately spiteful hate against
Anyone that has a different opinion or viewpoint
Because you aren't welcome or to be tolerated
Sound familiar the very definition of
Complete gone full
Circle

Sometimes, life will offer us a fork in the road.
At other times, just life with heavy loads.
Like time, life often proceeds indiscriminately.
All the choices are metaphorically evil, and
None participation is not an option.
We therefore proceed in our navigation.
We deal the cards we have been dealt.
We all would like to have health and wealth.
Whether realized or not, most of us are blessed
And experience pleasantries before our eternal rest.

Gun! What an invention you are!
Easily available in every bazaar!
People use you as a toy for the sake of fun!
With your entry entirely a new culture has begun!
In a lunatic’s hand you have become a wild stone!
Whichever the direction you are thrown is not known!
The purpose of your invention is only to defend!
But it has opened the gates for a new trend!
People become very bizarre when possessing you!
They use you indiscriminately not knowing who is who!
Seeing you in someone’s hand, people stand still!
Is it humane, killing the innocent and calling it a thrill?
People kill each other, seeking their needs to fulfill!
For checking this mayhem, who has to invent a pill?
I do not find fault with you, believe what I say is true!
It all depends upon the wisdom of people who use you!

Maybe just maybe I am and always
have been an
Undiagnosed
Apoplectically archetypal orthodox
Dislexic
Who unfortunately tried to spell
it out to anyone willing to listen
But obviously my words came out
all mixed up and wrong
So I never made any sense whether
that was or be
Whether scribbled down profusely and
indiscriminately on paper
Or spoken word of mouth thinking
other's could follow my train of thought
Which I perceived to be a well thought
out intelligent engaging conversation
Only to find out later people were only
merely placating and appeasing me
Because the one thing and defining characteristic I did have going for
me and on my side
Was that I what and while I lacked
in certain regards and area's
I somehow made up for in charisma
and sense of humor which manifested
in the guise of likeability
And the reason I used to get away
with things I never should have been
able to
But hey if they wanted to assume and
presume that of me
And they themselves opened up that
avenue of excuse for me to abuse
Then why on on wouldn't I take full
advantage and prey upon it

For, being good is definitely being victimised!

Are we less superior to ourselves than realization?
Our temporary shell, our salt, our generation.
Our streamers flutter like snow in Antarctica.
longing and valid expansion, made of mica.
Striving to liberate us, it rips apart its body.
Once again, envisaging us embody.
Systole, diastole, adventure indiscriminately.
The wide open oozes a scent of love imminently.
Shimmering between each of the drumbeats.
Summer, you are the windlessness of such feats.
We ate, kissed, cuddled, and then supped food.
A day's total is a unit of measure for what you lewd.
Need and desire exist in an interdependent reality.
We bury our bodies as a sign of our mortality.
The fate of our remains while wearing the shell
The land utters us the title of a spare body smell.
Synapses are memories, and we are waiting.
In order to cross its boundary, there is no gating.

As I sit in my seat
My life is complete
As I look down to the ground
My target I have not yet found
Nor will it be, at least not by me
Because for me at least
In my ejector seat
That doesn't matter
I get in quick
Drop the bombs
Release the missiles
Stick the afterburners on
I am such a hero back at home, as they blast far below
Taking life and limb of those I don't know
I never see faces
I never see life
I care not for human strife
I see nothing, I don't want to see
As I sit in my seat
Your house may be gone
Your children shattered
But none of that
To me matters
As I am a coward
A Russian coward in my seat
That kills indiscriminately
All of those I never see
So best stay in your cellars
And stay off the streets
As I just hope we never meet
Because you then might just kill me
>>>
When this is over, Putin and his kind need to hang, very slowly..
God bless Ukraine

A Mid Summers Subsistence Farm
David J Walker
The scent of the fast-coming dawns summer heat
A rush to meet the morning in a straw strewn barn
Morning chores on a subsistence farm
of scant moisture the dry air awaits
The mid-days unbearable blaze
Indiscriminately burning girls and boys bare feet
Tanning both arms and cheeks of a crop-shared
Existence farm An experience few would repeat
And anyway
There is nothing to do in town today
At least that’s what they say
When they yell
Get out of the Kitchen
Again

Death Of A Sweet Gum
Miracle Man
3/14/2022
Leaves cascading as if indiscriminately lost,
casualties of nature and multiple nights frost.
Once a coat of many colors on our Sweet Gum Tree,
they’ve quickly become just more yard debris.
Leaving exposed, a tree with prickly brown balls,
that will winter as ugly until the last one falls.
This yearly problem no more sticks in my craw,
my light bulb moment was my Stihl chain saw.
Varoom, varoom, varoom.

A youthful face, but no brains:
Time the deceiver – I think back,
to all I thought I knew that it has
taken me a lifetime to unlearn: Oh
the labyrinths the spirit travels!~till
at last realizing the poverty it has
impressed on its own soul – Youth,
full of beans, gassing the world
indiscriminately!

Russia valiantly fights 'a war of defense'
against Ukraine which 'has given offense'
Can Russia depose 'the Nazi, Zelensky?'
to end Ukraine's 'genocide of slaughtering Russenkis?' (aka Russians)
Russia's 'defense of her people' is understandable
But are NATO's policies all-so-commendable?
NATO says 'Nyet' to to No-fly Zones -- 'too provocative'
~ Russia laughs at such 'justifications' for her to use her prerogative
________________________________________________________
Russia bombs a maternity hospital and a nuclear reactor; levels whole
towns; shells civilian apartment complexes indiscriminately -- and NATO
can't OK a 'No-Fly-Zone' -- a DEFENSIVE tactic! -- to stop it?!!! For the
sake of humanity, when will Western leaders find the courage to FIGHT
this second coming of the murderous liar, Hitler?!!!!
