of my town's daily GoodNews Bulletin...

No.

In the dog days of summer, with the hot sun overhead.

My Town

From north, south, east and west 
This is the town to beat the rest,
Where history and present blend
As through its many streets you wend. 

Where once a monastery so great
From every view would dominate,
Where Pilgrims...

The forbidden fruit

Dionysus Markets Asphodel

With diligence, in Hades mayst they find
A path that to Elysian Fields doth wind.

I Am Not His Property

I wake up with a great startle.

My Obama EarthTribe CoOperative WinWin GlobalVillage Dream
was merely my hibernation.
I dreamed we share richly valued properties from healthy-wealthy African Elders,

to keep a positive
young-yang attitude,
