Premium Member Audacity of Democracy
Are you,

Premium Member NEW YEARS BAKE OFF

My Greek grandmother and godmother, cousins,
My grandma baked and cooked homely,
My Nona, my godmother exotically,
Each one perfect, one couldn’t fault either,
Their husbands, playing backgammon
Looked up and winked at each other,
Each one betting a fiver!
Their competitiveness...

The 'Talent' Gene
It is the most selfish gene
The one that make us distinguishable
Our uniqueness and special abilities

Path of the Soul
I have lived on the cusp of anxiety and bewilderment. 
Fragmented, mankind's collective consciousness has become. Competitiveness is a hindrance to our natural state, wholeness; peaceful interconnectedness.  
My eyes saw only aloneness and sorrow....

A Change of Heart
Today was the same as every other day in quarantine. Wake up. Change into different PJs. Eat. Watch Netflix. Eat. And eat again. Go to sleep. Start over. Despite the repetition, there was a slight...

Excavations - the Diagnosis
Second chance, I gave that to you
You did not compensate
You sing of penitence
Yet would not cross the bridge of redemption
So scarred through and through
What did not understand
Cannot penetrate
Why am the focus of your vile obsession
The...

Premium Member Two Closely Born Sons
Still just in diapers himself and already his brother’s keeper;
Logan watches lovingly as Lucas naps in sleepers.
Perhaps it’s in his DNA or the symptoms of a first born son,
But Logan has bonded with his little...

She Protests Too Much
With irascible words, she continues to bemoan
Writing about poets with whom she picks a bone
Chastising those who like to compete in contests
She's infected with hate, like a pustulant abscess

Her bitter sarcasm abounds for quite a...

A Contest
Perfectionist's selection
will overwhelm mediocrity
but who is a winner
when someone is the loser?

Contests of creation
creating competitiveness:
surely not survival of the fittest
or even the wittiest
but a reflection of talent
from the perception
of the reader.

Just write right
the form, the...

"if I had a choice"

if I had a choice of freedom experienced by wondrous experts
gliding with eagles way high within light from heaven or

Things
Moments like this are few and far between
I don’t know exactly what I mean
Sometimes I can just sit here
Wondering and pondering

Looking into my own little place
Full of dreams, wishes and successes

Competitiveness In Business
Competitiveness in business 
Is a sorry sight to witness 
Cheating if the chance allows

Upfront honesty that features...
