An Anxiously Anticipated Event

Dear John,

transparently and vulnerably
compassionately, so non-violently, share,
what to communicate;

Which narrative tributaries to choose
within this vast spacetime stream
of choices
directions

free to feel the way I feel

You don’t know how it feels
To be misunderstood and jaded
You won’t ever know till it kills you inside

Igniting natures prize

We Must Strive For Political Correctness

By Elton Camp

It would just be the end
If by words we do offend.

There’s the devil to be paid
If we call a spade a spade.

“Vertically challenged” means short.
“Horizontally challenged,” a fat sort.

“Nondiscretionary fragrance” means we stink.
“Living...

Pure silence or the sound of wind chimes
Willing to do anything to save their own hides
People still committing horrific crimes
During low and high tide
It's been one hell of a roller coaster ride
A whirlwind inside my...

Love Song

Here’s what I’m thinking now 
at the end of the world: 

There are no atheists in foxholes—
