Huntingtons Disease
You have a disease
That nothing can cure
Reality sinks in
Your thoughts are a blur

You struggle to do

Si Vis Pacem
You see them loot on city streets,
attack people and leave them beat,
take what they want with no regard,
it’s ‘easier’ than working hard.

Across the Counter Divide
They don’t care about you and me 
They don’t feel the need to offer courtesy
They upset everybody

Is often a stumbling block
In having our needs fulfilled

That Inerrant Scape
The inerrancy of the bible enrages me, 
Boils my blood, riles me and angers, 
Makes the interpretation prerogative limp, 
Nullifies that interpretation bud passed onwards, 
From every author who’s not embarrassed.

Hope is a Bird Wordless that Sings
I watch first rains on dusty countryside, 
And know, no pathways etched are by despair, 
And yet, hope comes like first showers to guide, 
Give ample hints on how to go and where.

A Few Things That Please Me Now
Instead of walking briskly, I often shuffle:
Watching TV I’ll cough, sniffle and snuffle:
This riles my wife and creates a kerfuffle,
Then flipping channels - her feathers I ruffle!
Such are the things that please me now!

which has advanced the betterment of us

For global war, as tensions build, for there are many...

Under the sparkling waterfall, cascades
of rushing amber waves. A breathless
spirit of invigorating grace - she fades.

dancing upon her bikini’d breast. The mermaid
