An Alien's Earthly Inquiry
An alien, green, with three eyes, Tried to blend in, with human disguise. He wore a fedora, And ordered a flora, Then asked, "Where do humans tell lies?" ©bfa032325 ...

Soft ivory pages, crisp and new. Insulated from the world's harsh truths, Snuggled in the comfort of rote learning, it waits. Protected from challenging ideas, Camouflaged as a bastion of knowledge, Ignoring sounds of a changing world outside. Each lesson absorbed, concepts released, The slightest spark of curiosity dimmed, Minds anchored to standardised forms. Slow to evolve, the system creaks. Returning to the safety of...

Premium Member An Ode to Inquiry
Who seeks the truth with a curious gaze? A child's bright eyes pierce the shadowed maze. The scholar's relentless, tireless quest, Unveiling mysteries, putting doubt to the test. The artist's keen eye, a story untold, In the mundane, beauty's secrets unfold. What ignites the flame, the burning desire? The question that sparks, setting knowledge afire....

(In a Lush Garden Somewhere Out There) The student stands where shifting sands of thought Once firm with reason now elusive truths are sought. Its splendor wanes a threadbare fading strand, A quest for wisdom in this digital land. Sage: (With gentle gaze) A sprite of bytes on data's wings you soar Through streams of understanding a world to explore. But tell me...

Tossing and turning in Whitman’s grass, Breathing every fervent loving sensate, My deliberate doubts, you may bypass, To obey the certainty of Christian dictates. To some, my probes attack settled law, My queries are grounds for execution. I don’t mind those symbols wedged in your craw. I just seek truths instead of words well spun. Truth travels in a continuous passage, Skipping along...

Premium Member Musing On the Soul
What is this soul we talk about? Might I find it in a droplet of water Perhaps, in a pop tune … a shout, In a loving mother, an abusive father? Elusive and ethereal, so hard to find Is it in our unique thought processes, A synonym for the individual mind, Something every human possesses? Perhaps, a figment of imagination? Something we cannot understand, Many...

An Inqiury into Today's Poetry Poems get shorter. Emails near non existent. Texts really shrink! We live in a world of 'xoxo' Or -)) an amazing, endless list. Our time, we tell others, is short. People have to guess what we think? Time so valuable, our full baptismal, wonderful names as initials? Do you fully get that? The question is existential. To me, your name is reverential. "PR" is so...
