only what is already both known and loved,
nature’s kindness and justice,
truth as beauty,
love as abundantly rich healthy life
and death.

In the workshop of my waking hours,
I am the maker of my own day,
Crafting moments with a DIY attitude,

Another meeting for the important elected procedure,
attainment and its necessity for the believer.

April 6 Coffee Love Hate Affair

Always have
Always will

Love it when it gets me up
Flying high in the sky

As the sun comes over
Filling with hope
And anticipation

As...

I want a date
Where we start
Awkward
And become age old
Friends by the end of it,
Not a
Half-hearted
Love story
Written
In its entirety

At god-awful jokes,
Coffee (caffeinated)
At 3 in the morning
When we watch the sun
Come up,
Dawn breaking...

Roasted and ground, a caffeinated refrain.
Born in the tropics, where the sun meets the shade,
A journey unfolds from bush to brewed cascade.

In the highland realms where the arabica dreams,
And...

Pee pee song and dance routine)

Invariably analogous setting

Holding your hands in mine
Hoping you won't let go
After what I tell you..
Before we begin,

You're number 21.

I walked to your house that morning.
You sprinted clumsily to the door.
We helped...

Welcome to twenty twenty
Where digital illiteracy is illiteracy

Cash and coins encoded binary
Banks and schools running on scripts

Hidden behind the telescreens
is Alice the programmer;

her fingers as QUIC as the data stream
as she races the ARMed processor;

together,...

We have sprinted on our paws
from silver fields into the ashen corridors
of Office-Max
How early we set our alarms, how grown up,
