and early Roaring Trumpian 20s USA,
between fascist and fake propaganda,
between judicial patriarchal-privileged racist stockpiling,
between CEOs living above our democratically inclusive laws
while self-pardoning for agressions,
trespasses,
debts against a cooperatively co-investing society,

Syrian GraveyardUnnumbered human corpses
mutilated and spread
like illegally-shot elephants in Waza Park!
From ‘man know thyself’
to ‘man hates himself’-
humans mutilate humans!
Future-bound glorious infants,
feeble moms
and luck-abandoned dads
bombed, suffocated, shot and slain
by politico-economic drunks!
Yawning stomachs here,
blood-dripping arms there,
open-mouth frozen heads...

M-Theory MusingsWhat theory unifies forces, weak, strong,
With gravity— also, to which belong
All the string theories of why and because?

Year EndingDecember.
My coldest winter ever.
My slow descent
into destruction,
my epic battle with the devil.
Thought I’d never meet her.

12 months
have slipped between
my fingers.
