Bothyang and Alsoyin

It's hard to think in Either-Or Deductive,
while speaking and acting in Both-And Inductive.

For example,
If my Brother is kind and loving
(and he usually is),
and really not all that judgmental and condemning
with his wife and kids especially...

Old Man of the Land ( Dedicated To Sid Grey Born 19 ? Died 1996 R.I.P )

When Sid first met me he laughed 
Sat in his seat of an old Ford 135 
Tractor red rust and wet sticking mud
Swathed in a great green rain coat
A friendly laugh he said
“Bet you wish...

One Way Ships - Part 1

Flings and wings and rings rejected…
 Cupid’s arrows fly deflected…
“It clearly is too late” she signed, “to love, adore or pay me mind”

Penciled lines drew cruel conclusions
mocking mirror’s cracked illusions…
Sometimes, in time, I hang awhile,...

Nightmare Disposal

There are skeletons in the wardrobe but they’re home and dry

Looked after properly moth balled and yet unkindly falling apart

Conscience is layered just as are subconscious wishes and fears

Sometimes I play with the bones and...

The Desert Edge (Part Three)

Looking at him I wondered why he wanted to leave, to go on
I knew the hardships of the desert and its forge
I knew the horrors of the jungle beyond the great wall of silent vines

Daisies and Dreams

When Spring’s soft murmurs broke the stillness of the rolling hills,
He took his guitar outside to welcome days of daffodils.
His music wound throughout the pines in greening melodies,
The gypsy lady heard them and was stirred...

Irrepressible Fields of Thought

There is an irrepressible field of thought
We learn resiliently better
more profoundly together
than competitively 
and shallowly apart.

We feel better
in eco/ego-therapeutic teams
more than as isolated egocentric wanderers
more eccentric
than supported by nurturing environments 
ego/eco-centrically populated
with WinWin players.

EcoCentric thoughts
informing...

Get Out My Life

When I was at the Hilton 
And I didn’t feel strong 
You jumped a bandwagon
Yeah you were real wrong
And it’s taken many years to carry on
So I’m gonna tell it and put you where you...

Indulgence

Yesterday evening the shivering and drenched birds
were unkindly tossed to shore,like a wrecked ship,
by violent,unexpected storms;
finally calmness is felt,at noon, over the inlet...
as soft and overlapping waves
roll through blazing reflections! 

While another sunset is so...

Man Unkind To Mankind

In the ancestral call of righteousness
They failed the almighty creator
There in the Forbidden Garden of Eden
Who could tell where the sinful garden is now?
That smal pretty hut where sin began in deceitful manner
Then to the...

Please wait at the door. 
I told the man holding the package.

but as patiently as one might expect, 
from a driver with a truck full

ODE TO THE YOUNG ADULT CANCER SURVIVOR


I stood at the threshold 
Of a promising life,
Ready to step out bold,
Face challenges and strife.

I wanted to soar,
Like an eagle in the sky.
Eager to conquer more, 
To reach really high. 

One fateful day I...

The Rainbow

The Rainbow

The world howled and the roaring thunder did clap,
amid frothing waters and whipping winds our vessel marched.
To us whom the boiling sea had unkindly spared there was no stopgap,
the hellish deluge spared us no...

Grasping At Thin Air


You say you’ve always tried 
to reach out to me,
even to the outer limits of your patience — 
That lofty trust atmosphere

But, just how far
did you try to reach within
the deep, shadow spaces of your...

Obsession

I see you every night,
I dream about you every night,
I see you when I see the light,
I know you're one of a kind.
I know you'll never be mine.

But I'll try,
To see the bright side,
It'll be...

Mea Culpa

MEA CULPA


If it is dirty, yours truly.
A child is crying, what did I do?
A cloud blocks the sun, must be my attitude.

A word said unkindly.
They must have learned from me.
For I am as unrespectful as...

I must get up today. 
I will need to open my eyes, stretch, yawn and move. 
My feet will need to hit the floor first. Not my face. 
Why my face you might ask? 
because...

They Made Us Naked

The rotten smelling
pigs of the twenty
first century
With characteristics
of Geoge Orwell Pig
"Nepoleon".
Bad leaders in a
paradise humming in
disgust
They made us
hopeless not life.
Torture us unkindly
regardless of our
sorrow'
We are painted black
and red changing
like the chameleon 
In which you hardly

Oh Lord, in this one life that we live
Help us to love and to forgive

When words so cruel and unkindly spoken
Are tossed at our hearts making them broken
Anger and rage rise out of the ashes

The Birthhday

The birthday

The old man is grumpy the women sit in the kitchen
talking about him, “to think he drove all that way without a break.”
Don’t they know driving is simpler than walking?
The women in the kitchen...
