Treasuring the EducatorA former friend of mine
tricked me into becoming
something I am not
The volunteer President
of our condo association,
a position I clearly cannot afford
midst trifling disassociations.
We were starting our Autumn tradition
of arguing about next year's budget
which typically continues
until...

While the chill of September's dawn crept into my veins,
And the scent of the wind outside smelled with horror,

A nirvana of nonsense

A dismal wreck to people’s conscience
We fight among ourselves
To shed as much blood
As a...

To Gladly WalkIf I could walk gladly
and talk not sadly
across this Earth
around our home,
our shared place
of sacred journeyed birth
and emergent democratic space,
I would.
Yet, not only could we walk
and talk
in Earth's dispassioned way,
Not only would you
and should we...

When your conscience comes knocking at your door

Nutty Flavors of LifeLife is like a nut,
Differs in shape, size, color or crust,
Life is like a nut.
For some, it’s like a coconut,
Beyond the reach, safe from gust
Very important, much privileged!
Whether unripen or matured.
For some it’s like a...

her splendor spewing power soaked
sound waves of security cross the valley
and trails where tourists are cloaked

In winter she quick silently retreats
to the mountaintop peaks of surrealist

Political aims. Political lying.
Treaties are friendships, or so they’re implying;
As long as all parties are meekly complying.
Self-interested means, are always belying
The truth of the war; the truth underlying.
