Feeling claustrophobic,
anxious about an unpromising competitive future,
drowning in inch-deep and narrow boxed-in mentoring...

Running Away From Hibernating Ren

Why is it
as I watch The International CEO Actor
unilaterally Ordering disinvestment
in both domestic and Earth's cooperative-organic health,
I feel cold harsh January snowblow storms?

Dismaying cold
calling me toward hibernating silo of unencumbered sleep,
possibly to dream of sequestering...

Heard about the Berlin Wall
It made a rather horrid fall
It stood so tall in victory's palm

Carrying Along That Secret

Gradma singing her passionate Neapolitan songs 
from a balcony adorned with scarlet roses...her deep voice
not a soprano's, but delightful and expressed in humaneness;
her long golden hair brushed by the summer's aromatic breeze, 
to spark a...

Wuz Up Brother of the 70's-Huh

 you perm and prime you shun;
You polish up your own stone;
You talk trash and jive;

That Unpromising Smile

You give me that unpromising smile
I hear your murmurs and cries
Please stay awhile…stay awhile…

Darling, don’t worry – 
Don’t be afraid of the...

Nobody's Life

Nobody's life can ever be complete without smiling
at everyone passing by, it's not something out of line;
I wouldn't live with people who can't be sharing:
say hello to someone and see that face really shine!

Miserable people...

A Journey Taken Again

After a year's silence
He maintained flowing through eons of loneliness
He weaved a yarn with my tears and pain
Feelings he left behind
Going on his way

Awhile In Time...

I close my eyes for a while, just a while
And I see a familiar darkness I recognize
Astonishingly, comfort was found somehow
A tranquility I’m always in welcome to reprise

Images in random united within
Moving in with memories,...

Unpromising and slowly serving it’s purpose
