Long Consistency Poems

Too many times sadly

rounds of enlightenment
and Mother Earth's
codependent rhythms
regenerating rich 
empowering 
soulful soil
and surfing seas

And this trusting more
impels healing trauma's lessons,
surviving hale and...

I had a long argument today...
Whilst sitting by the 
surcharging charging airport port,
shouldertoshoulder with this pastor.

Delayed flight and low juice
kept us there, squared off;
shoulder to shoulder.

He with all...

What is your opposite
for SACRED?

for sexually unscared
unscarred
unscrambled?

SECULAR, I suppose.

Secularization

co-governing polycultural outcomes,
nonviolently,
therapeutically,
restoring mindful peacefulness.

I wonder if we could...

With doubts and irrational drivels
My heart is livid and hardened

It's too early under the gray sky,

The veins of my hands,
Salient hands on the wheel
The look Elevated

The white line scrolls,
The colored houses, fled,
Since the curves crossed,

Creeks glimpsed,
The white...
