Premium Member Earthy Empathy
You've heard that self-unfulfilling prophecy?

it's just overly-competitive individuals I can't stand.

Not so distant from,

How dare you desecrate the Capitol with urine and feces!
Even filthy pigs refuse to defecate near their own dwelling place.

Alongside swastikas, hate symbols...

Premium Member My White House Interview
I was nervous about my newest client.
Not every Permaculture Designer gets a contract
with the WhiteHouse.
But, when the President called,
or twittered,
for an intake interview,
I guess it felt like an obligation
to at least show up,
although perhaps about...

Premium Member 8 Little Egypts
Something strange

and unexplainable comes this way,
this way, it comes to us sly and fast, 
some say, perhaps,

what the heart belies

the sweet music
of the sounds so fraught

His face imprinted 
hidden under layers of ink
he whispers his words

like a haunting breeze
dust blown off the pages
towards the back of their minds
