Premium Member Mixing Metaphors
Mixing metaphors in the morning Coffee craving stills the brain Active principle lying passive Roar of silence calls in vain For no one leads when no one follows Nothing lasting will remain In the moment where all is timeless Self and other just the same (9/8/23)...

Premium Member Mixing In the Moonlight
Mixing in the Moonlight Dear darling, gaze ye at the blood red moon. Ancient light that calls with its bright red tones. Fret not, on the breeze there will be no tune. For the loss is great, witness how she moans. How can we lowly sinners, give her hope? Her pain daunting, my love, that is so true. The poor boy...

Premium Member Mixing Politics and Religion
My grandfather seemed wise with years walking his rural spiritual path in a relentlessly white Christian dualistic church dividing sinful nature from sacred spirit. He counseled: Do not mix religion and politics. I wonder how he would feel about this mix of sacred and profane if he were to meet my out lesbian activist senior UU minister. Clearly we have mixed up our religious community within our local political culture When we called this gendered clergy person we...

Premium Member Mixing Day
When you look forward with a sense of dread; And yet there is no gun aimed at your head. You try to find the joy, but there is none. The concrete pour looms large; let's get her done. At least there is a thought that does console: Peach cobbler, homemade ice cream, in a bowl....

Premium Member This Week
*** THIS WEEK *** (“If my doctor told me I had six minutes left to live, I wouldn’t brood. I’d type a little faster.” Isaac Asimov) The sliced portions of this week Collapsed, an almost eloquent fall Into a slow-motion slide Of morsels Then, still unnoticed, on into The soft blue crystals of This week’s ending — being Merely a measure...

The Mixing of Spirits
It's easy to think of the mixing of spirits as being something sexual... because, in a way, it always is. Mixing engenders the kinds of connections that go deeper inside than the usual interactions. It's easy to think that you know what's happening when you're oblivious to the sword of the truth. When you don't understand all the nuances and subtleties it's easy to think you know what's...

Premium Member Color Lines
Thanks to all those brave souls, the trail blazers that has gone before us. They who fell in love, back when white society wasn't so excepting or was intolerant of mix marriage. Love is made of tough stuff, couples had it ruff. So, for a while, some lovers even kept a low profile. This has been going on for a long while. But they took a leap...

Premium Member Mixing Flavors of Soup
Slow- fire gleams upon a nearby field as I gather herbs from twig-like strips adding creamy broth to stir the brew under a moonlight of summer’s heat … The mellow breeze warms my thoughts where hands pour lemon mint, in a campfire kindling essence of words for poetry soup: then to ...

Premium Member Mixing of the Bones
If we could peel back the blanket of earth To expose the bones buried there Mix them all up in a great big pile To say they'd all look the same would be fair The rich man, the poor, the blind and the weak Each gender, religion and race The short, the tall, the large and the small And include every shape...
