of mass Jewish male child murder,
Jesus and his mom and dad
became...

Bank In Trust Coinvestors
In cooperative detective work,
including Earth scientific research,
we are told to follow the money
much more often
than feeling invited
to follow the nutritional health investors
and the toxic pathological attackers
Whether our trail is a criminal
or political
economic impassioned journey

For Straight White Boys Only
Have you seen a Rockwell 1950's Lemonade Wars?
Two girls, both white of course,
dressed for YoungRepublican success
scowling at each other on a pristine deserted street
of the tree-lined rich suburban variety,
arms folded across their angry

hopeless inhabitants whose passion lay motionless in ruins

Impertinence
reminds Roshi Susan Murphy,
refers not only to Trumpian rudeness

A prince as he, so delectable,
Amidst the beauty of hills,
He made her, the dream castle.
As lovingly, She delivered to...

It's not enough to say,
with however much great might,
America's Religious Right

Slavery
enslavement
force of self-imposed ownership
overpowering another's ego-ownership,
anthro-morbid,
collective ego-morphic tolerance of identity rape,
fear and anger, together building hate,
from which enslavement derives;
a culturally camouflaged nondual co-arising relationship
of codependent despair,
self-hatred.
Enslaving force perpetuates Ego's full-blown angry reduction
in self-identity,

A Letter To My Friend - Iii
To my dearest dear…

First Love
Twisting in the winds of pain
Hung by unseeing hands
Crying to the empty night
Hope has long since abandoned me
To desolation’s cold embrace
Find solitude in numbness
As what once brought happiness
Leaches away my joy
Regrets chase me
Across this barren...

Respect For Integrity
A competitive path,
society v individual,
to retributive justice
is measured in accountability
of the individual
to respect
the imposed police and court
and prison system.
More cooperative polypaths,
individual Me AND social We,
to restoring Ego/EcoJustice
are measured in collective integrity
reducing trauma
isolation
intimidation
and chronic stress...

Agony, grief and particularly anger

One Wish Granted

Entranced through castle window
arms outstretched ...
but resting on its frame
The only sound that falls to ear
from a pendulum's rhythmic swing

A gentle flame
sends ghostly shadows
that dance to silent notes
Entwined in scents from fireside
inlaid with cherry smoke
~
