Observance
by Michael R. Burch
Here the hills are old and rolling
carefully in their old age;
on the horizon youthful mountains
bathe themselves in windblown fountains...
By dying leaves and falling raindrops,
I have traced time's starts and stops,
and I have...

Neglect

They will not spare the dying their anguish.

What good, the warm...

Discrimination

The meter I had sought to find, perplexed,
was ripped from books of "verse" that read like prose.
I found it in sheet music, in long rows

Miracle of Hypocrisy
I was listening to Cornell West,
who described our catastrophic tolerance of disvalues for others,
situations we would never tolerate for ourselves,
disvalues like homelessness and hunger,
but also like random violence,
abuse and neglect,
lack of caring,
as a "conspiracy"...

My Reproductive Rights Attorney

We have two opposing views

including natural law,
and including U.S. Constitutional Law.

The Skeletons and Songs of Samsara - 2

you wonder what haunts the sun
and why pain enjoys your childhood eyes,

Future Self Among Others
Future selves recycle past dynamic imaginations,
Greek Gods as muscular Yang athlete images
evolve from older internal messianic bodhisattva Yin,
double-edged incarnations of power.

A king entered in a robe,
Clothed in a raiment of

Vast and enormous is he,
Occupying matters of matters,
Spaces of Spaces.

Before him was raident throne,
Swathed in light and graced
With fire of sulphur...

Inconvenient Wisdom
Instant individual redemption
from predative enculturation
is overly spiritualized,
under naturalized,
rightwing evangelical dogma
more likely found in empire-building
strong business-loyalty development texts
than multi-enculturing
re-connecting
re-ligioning nature/spirit scriptures.
If spiritual
and capital redemption from baseline natural evils
is good news for individuals,
yet inapplicable to global...
