Bio-Thermal Geometry
	
Mama, mama ...
I got a triangular problem
And I need you
to give me the square deal truth
Straight honest for real, lying foolproof — 
it’s a rectangle of a mess
I’m trapezoid in a love box,
never thought it...

Premium Member Restorying Earthjustice
Restorative justice programs
empower victims
and enlighten remorseful perpetrators

To become active co-responders
in a partnership
to brighten win/lose
left-brain dominant trespassers
in the win/win grace of forgiving
fore-gifting all us Trespassers
as we forgive our TransPassive exploiters
straight white privileged monoculturists
overpoweringly competitive capitalists
climate eco-extractive...

Sombrero In Space
The word sombrero in Spanish was made
from Late Latin origin, meaning shade.
Predating Mexican type of headwear
that’s commonly presupposed, instead they’re

more generally hats designed with brim.
Therefore the galaxy’s wide-ranging rim,
through pareidolia’s visual drift
causing our human perception...

Nephalim Oracle
A cosmic clash of epic force
Split Tiamet like brittle thread
Nibiru hugged its distant course
Propelling moons to gnaw and shred

Kingu marveled at what was formed
Asteroids shed from that vast orb
The watery giant was transformed
Leveling as third...

In the Void
No voice is whispered in the void
Explosions inside the nest of stars
Ignite into the operas of the galaxies 
Noiseless vacancies full of mysteries
Evolve, remain as vacuous as they are

Space, bridled by the fire balls of...

Premium Member Canoeing On the Current River
Our riverbank launch at dawn
where dense forest chills the breeze,
where cottonwood leaves flutter like wings,
and weeping willow penumbras tease.

Glistening, rippling turquoise water churns.
Crystal swirling pools symphonic and aglow,
elliptic aluminum crafts coast over craggy stones, 
riverbed...

Future
Ten million years from now when we become mature
When Earth rotates much slower around a faded sun
Turned orange with flares of yellow visible to the eye
People will find true love in their metallic selves

Seven fingers...

Give Me Something Round
Give me something round
Edges to life should be circular
Beware of the elliptic mystery
Rotate your marbles frequently

Give me something spherical
Two hemispheres in harmony
Held together with super glue
Solid to the core and spiraling

Give me something not Michigan

Slate Sea Swirls
Slate sea swirls
a breath of air.
Quiet illusion
not so rare.

Electric charge
hair stands straight.
My heart and pulse
palpitate.

Kayak rocks
though not a storm.
A silent ship
elliptic form.

Hovers right above
my scalp.
Terror froze
my call for help.

Paddle slips
beneath the boat.
Nothing left
to help me...

Spring On a Trolley Car
Like the Sun
a trolley car
Is bound to the tracks

Like the Sun
A trolley car
follows an elliptical path

Like sunflowers
People need the Sun
For life

The Sun journeys on the dark side of things
And the people have no choice but...

The Oort Cloud Cometh

A few million years from now if we are here
Comets by the thousands will appear
Sent by cosmic forces originated from out there
Science says the Oort cloud is to blame
Some odd unseen entity...

The Answer Is:
Here's a little teaser I pose. A simple answer will do! 

When two lines are juxtaposed,
it must be supposed, they are apposed, 
so never meet face to face. 

But when contiguous lines cross,
will it cause...

Slaughtered Moon
Slicing thoughts, destiny
timeness of present, trying to watch
inside. The inverted question. Mask
removed.

Your own progeny spying on you,
disowning the moon bears. Beyond
truth was a huge wall. Ensnarement.
Whispers silenced.

A vast void. Interpretation of disguised
Voilence. Hostilities in elliptic...

I'M Leaving Eventually
I'm Leaving (eventually)

I'm going to leave the planet

as I vanish into black

Traverse the great elliptic

on past the rings of Saturn before

Marvellous elliptic magic Moon

Moon In Phase
Wax and wane/ constant change
Tides will rise/ tides fall the same
With moon in phase/ bodies spin
