And uniting...

Adieu - Part 2The tears flowed and I still smiled,
My body and spirit and mind,

Soaking in your sweet smile,
And savoring the moonlit skin before me,
But my soul was being torn asunder,
And...

Fishy Science School of Geometric ArtsMath speaks through us

in further living, not deadening, artifacts
through each personal life

and capital redemption from baseline natural evils
is good news for individuals,
yet inapplicable to global...
