The Tea Party
"Go on forth young graduates,
And show us who you are
You're now our future leaders
We know you will go far"

Pictures done and people changed
Now, off to private parties
All orderly pre-arranged
But four young girls...

arises a humming, magnetic pull,
which in each moment does afresh begin,
drenching us with bliss, making heart feel full.

love’s elixir...

but to get there we must leave mind behind,
whence in staid stillness thus, we go in deep,
becoming over time, divine aligned.

Touching
Moment to moment, all moments entwined,

that...

My heart gets heavy

My boots, still burdened with the dust of Carpathian trails

Morning glories were waiting

Your citizens which then made me ashamed...

Or settle for a shortcut?
Coaches' scuttlebutt
Execute the steal
Professing rather than real

'Til adversity staggers
Making Sandbaggers
Men try to judge Him
When self-righteousness rules them
Worthless...
