cursed with the thought...

acting civilly,
as a citizenry
acting as responsible citizens.
The noun side of Ecclesia

In This Taoist's View
Could we be doing our best
to invest in Earth's cooperative health markets?
While you sell our most competitive killing machines
to our Saudi Arabian cousins.
Referencing this touchstone as an ecopolitical WinWin,
unlike Parisian multicultural investments in climate health,

War Is a War Crime
Once wars were fought with sticks and stones
to flog the flesh and batter bones
and conquer lands, defending thrones -
though gods provoke, not one atones.
The multitude (by hordes beset
with battle-ax or bayonet)
braved blades, dyed red...

Hero Worship
I want to respond
to the retired Marine
who watched Democratic Congressional Leaders
during the State of our crippled Union event,
disappointed at how their patriotism,
their loyalty to sacred sacrifices of soldiers
appears too tepid,

Stalked By August Trees
Every time I change directions
lately, and possibly beforely,
Trees stand by to mentor
and nurture,
to feed with branched hands
to bleed when uprooted
from aptic past centuries
of hibernating winter naps.
Trees of original pheromone attraction,
August spawned
like Taurus colonizing crabgrass
embedded in...

Nudging Recreation Along
What are fair and effective nudges
for too much freedom of wounding weaponed speech?
Maybe equal freedom to listen nutritionally
and not speak toxically?

to competitive over-investment in fear-mongering--
Threats to hold your breath 'til everyone sees...

Some collections are a defence and a wall of armaments,
Others represent a lifetime of memories and recollections,
A wonderful improvement on memory’s imperfections.
