Blue, Red

(Overheard at an Ecopsyche
Workshop)

The blue pill
Or as we like to call it,
“The self-with-nature seminar,”
Allows one to
Walk in fairly unkept woods
Surprisingly unaided
But regularly looked-after by an Eco-adjuster
Herself a blue pill graduate 
And certificate holder.
You also receive
An animal mask
A booklet of 
Fire ring songs
Plus, tips on how be a
Tacky-Tack eco-influencer.
You might even get the courage to say
Out loud:
“Corporations be damned!”
No side effects have been reported.


The red pill,
Our
“Cynic in the woods advanced program”
Will make you frothing-at-the-mouth-mad 
Overflowing with eco anxiety
And as obstinate-uncompromising
As 
Greta 
Tintin 
Eleonora 
Ernman 
Thunberg.
You’ll likely be arrested.
You might even lose
University tenure
And be on many ‘no-fly’ lists.
You’ll wake every morning
Knowing that you have not done enough
To save the planet.

“What’ll it be?”
“Two blues please.”


Premium Member What Might Have Been

Piles of regrets gather dust in draws,
                                        If only I had a feather duster.
How often fleeting chances missed,
                                        If only dares, like mares I could muster.
Perhaps I should flip a coin to decide,
                                        If chance to 'might be' blockbuster
Pops up like a billboard flashing by,
                                        With 'play me right now' life adjuster.
Multiple worlds, multiple stories await,
                                        Those that fire the ejector thruster
To leap into windows of opportunities,
                                        Smashing glass to land a gangbuster.

Handsome Day


To you I give rhymes, 
From different reasoning lifetimes... 
That cost mind nighttimes

To offer the best;
Free of lyrical contest,
Beyond mere interest.

Now, it is time's way...
To lead on a brighter day,
That finds nice display-

Step by step, with all
It takes not to ever fall...
Even at nightfall

Before been too late,
To improve steps world's trials fate, 
Leaping far its gait...

A day of goodwill,
That set standards on God's will:
Righteousness fulfill

For friends even foes,
Like what friendly strangers pose...
That's way world enclose

But gives kind gesture...
To tell you- good adjuster,
In life's adventure.

Drum Rolls


I put up a fight:
A daring battle
Of love's delight, 
Proud fears, rattle... 

But when drum rolls... 
Hopeful care consoles
My daring aim unsettled. 

A pair still to play, 
Warming up for game. 
Two paths before us lay:
A path to victory; other to shame. 

But when drum rolls... 
Courage meets controls, 
My anxiety becomes settled. 

How should we start? 
At a distance together, 
Or of just, closely apart
Forever against weather. 

But when drum rolls... 
Puzzle sets on patrols
To parade memories behind. 

Deal yet be accepted, 
Fate yet to decide... 
Persuasion intercepted, 
Where considerations reside. 

But when drum rolls... 
Regrets set off goals, 
Against time long mind. 

Sunshine or rain? 
Choose one now, 
Don't wait in vain... 
Before sealed to vow. 

But when drum rolls... 
Arsenal binds our souls, 
Maybe right or wrong choice. 

This is a booster, 
A common in us. 
Though an adjuster, 
To keep silent, fuss!

But when drum rolls... 
Check my written scrolls
Your eyes evidently rejoice.
