Long Uncommitted Poems

When I was about twelve
I began to see my future
as a ruthlessly effective
overpoweringly sublime advocate for justice 
as global peace outcomed and measured,
As a courtroom drama officer
of the U.S. multicultural Court EcoSystem,
A flaring hot attorney

“Never forget 
everything Hitler did 
in Germany was legal.”
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

drop by drop lady liberty bleeds
red on white and blue
common sense vexatious 
verboten spins askew

Do you know what happened 
At 11 p.m Tuesday night
I guess you must have it
However much I protest-
But do you know

Of course you don’t:
The victory of ignorance
Come on! I will enlighten you

I took the bi-valve
Flung...

despair hangs heavy 
in the air these days
 
but the only path
is through they say

an intruder in the midst
blowing his cold still drip 
into the ivy

teardrops overwhelm tilted ice trays
gently gathering each
hoping for a catch...

Last night I arrived very late
for a GRACE planning team meeting.
GRACE's mission advocates against
all things racist,
whether systemic
or the normal chaos of antipathy
and sin 
against everyday non-violent win-win
choices
policies
procedures
positions
platforms political and economic
sacred and secular
sociological and neurological.

I stepped...

Who is knocking at my door?!
I wonder as I stood from the table. 
Who could possibly be peeping through my peep hole 
For I am puzzled.
Could it be the police to take me away? 
For...

Marshmallows bright some are mushy, soft, weak, jellyfish swimming in a cesspool of uncommitted, unloyal, uncaring mud. Their kindness a show, a facade, a mask. They never finish a single...

'Breaking the Trauma Bond'
Do you still like me? 
Let me count the ways.  
The tired old familiar abuse,  
The ugly scowl,  
The “get outta here’s!” 
“Don’t give me that kind of sh..t!!”...

It's easy to see
It's more important to be
pro-life 
than pro-choice
if one must prefer to choose
to win or lose 
robust healthy life.

Are you pro-life
or pro-choice?

Both.
Pro-choosing resilient EarthTribe life
for everyone.

Do not confuse pro-choice
with pro-death,
Or pro-life
with anti-integrity unhealthy...

Writhe 'bound thousand of centuries
Drawn in a thin sheet of paper
Within its palm, destined, fated
The endless flow, our memories 

Motherland in quicksand of hate
Hatred rules, the rotting system
Wallowed, famine and injustice
Thoughts which touches the weak

…the faithless and doubting, the uncommitted and unfaithful…
…the disobedient and stubborn…
Oh, woe unto me: disqualified...

In England, they have a handsome him and her
Who both together could be called a commoner
And to live in a place that has great health
Do you really have to live in a commonwealth?

There is nothing worse than love except unloved.
It's unclear why I have been moved from desirable to undesirable.
An unaccountable situation not uncommon in the relationship world.
The issue that one has become uncommitted is undeniably
ungracious and...

Thoughts flooding my mind, I got drowned in them

confussion and frustration
made the task a chore
it favored longety which
at first evaluation
of the work had been ignored
in referance to the group
we were straong and committed
but in labor
we were divided
and uncommitted.
I felt cheap and used
like a...

Drowning half awake
suspended in a trance
under your toe's pull
drawn by footstep's need
to find a path
on a sunny road to walk
naked in the sun
worn well in conviction
for the crimes of your heart
uncommitted
you stand alone again
with water...

like a woman in white, 
reaching into the darkness with

lighting the swamp lamps with her very radiance. 
Her breath hung in the air like smoke
