Inconvenient WisdomInstant individual redemption
from predative enculturation

strong business-loyalty development texts

Dearly Departing ChristiansMany of you live
humbly and heartily
patriotically and industriously
nutritiously and faithfully

dying rivers,
hurricaned coastal residents
Displaced by floods,
invasive mold,
voracious rot and rats,
Barren top soil,
failing electrical networks,
drought,
inhumane heat,
decimated forests
Bereft...

Postmillennial VirusWhat remains
when gratitude for learning
totally evaporates?
I don't know...
Totalitarian senility, maybe?
I guess I don't understand

Stainless westward marker, its culture flowed southward for influence
within the lawn-jockey, pink flamingo neighborhoods of moral decay.

Strange LoveWe are surrounded,
sometimes aversively beset,
upset,
by diverse warm and colder felt attributes of love.
