With the words I say…with the actions I make…

Neither will I…
Assume the worst in...

down upon the cries of foresaken refugees,
the monastery's walls wobbling from war's wreckage,

For Spacious Time
I need some natural,
organic,
spacious kinda time.
Where is nature in this time,
my time,
our time?

Transgenerate Roots
My grandparents' grandparents,
all sixteen,
digging roots through cultural meristems,
young adults,
adolescents during Time's 1880's,
post Civil War birth of Sir James Crow monoculture.

The Village On the Water Iv
Thump-thump of stiffening fish contorting
In the bilge beneath the gunwale;
Lidless, bulging, reddened eyes, swivelling upwards,
Protruding horribly from the straining sockets,
Express stupefied amazement at inconceivable

Inevitable Death Defines Afterlife - Deux
Inevitable death defines afterlife - deux

binaural beat of your drum

KRAMPUS CHRISTMAS
KRAMPUS CHRISTMAS
All hope is lost for children
If their festive spirit dies,
The Christmas magic disappears
As they look through older eyes.
No more milk and cookies
Or a sign for Santa`s sleigh,
Or carrots for the reindeer
To eat...
