The Edges of Rhyme 

I wrote the playbook, watching what they took 
While the earth shook I could not look 
In the direction of the Big Book 
Like a fish caught on a nasty hook...

his arms embracing upon our sins and lies, 

do not deceive yourself , my friend.
in the twilight of our beings our corruption merges and blends.

The child sat on the sofa,
her body laiden with bruises and covered in lice. 
She was only the age of one,
         maybe two.

One of the true ways 
to remain in captivity is to keep silent to avoid your captor’s 
hostility and confusion

A penny for my 
thoughts has provided me with the ammunition 
To fight for what I...

If Yang's powers are efficiency of outcomes,
whether positive or negative,
regeneratively sustainable
or strained out toward dissonant chaos
of runaway monopolistic monoculturalism,
which I believe economists call capitalism;

Then Yin's dialectal fluency is qualitative effectiveness,
whether nurturing health or pathology,
and all...

Having resumed control I spied Lelia sticking her tongue out at those reckless varmints.
She stopped the minute I noticed.
Odd.

What is absolute truth

Is this believing in something that cannot be proved,

Or the suspension of what you understand to be reality

And a stepping out of the illusory,

Whereby you immerse yourself within

Where every source of creation...

I'm sorry mom, but I killed a man.
His daughter and newborn that was in his hands.
I'm so sorry because you raised me well,
but there's a demon inside
and I thought that I should tell.
I found pleasure...

Through the chaos and the wreck.
The earth was clothed in a misty layer –
Sown by the heavens’ unanswered prayers.

Cold hard steel, some sort of construction site –

He's got a big ego,
he keeps offending people,
he scoops the same scoop,
and round and round we loop,
until the bubble pops
and the world sees him flop,
reject the rude,
deflate your ego,
swearing kills the mood,
you able?

I'm getting too...

Kathy Boudin thought the U.S. beyond repair,
She thought she saw the deep reality, and it was unfair.
From SDS to the Weather Underground,
She dived deep in Marxism, plain sense no longer found.

Momentarily
          by Odin Roark

How elusive the quest
To place oneself in sync
Wavelength to wavelength
Response to reply

So many agendas beg ignoring
Those places where integrity remains suspect
Where job

Acquaintances
Eye contact
Undeserved...

In a forest with no paths 
We follow the sun and the moon...

We are all departing,
Beings of departure belonging to no one
And we lack all the knowledge of it
From the first day we came,

To reach our goals. 
Enough!
You have turned me...

When civilization begins to crumble,
it's gonna end with a crash
The sound is gonna be loud:
Big Bang!
Everything

The first crashing sound
is the financial markets plummeting to the ground
Those banks are gonna be closed,
