Overlooked Quotes
If only wings all words would soar...too many anchors yet to endure.
Knowing is maybe less important than living? Certainly we are not here, to teach God anything.
We soak in our grief -- till the black robed thief returns us.
Traveling more deeply in sometimes is the only way out.
We travel and...

Der Dichter Im Himmel
[German Version]
Wenn Gott seine Hand über das Land schwingt,
wirft er Blautöne,
gab er uns allen ein Skript zum Lesen,
bei Kerzenlicht und silbernem Mond,
wenn Engel weinen und Sterne fallen,
wird der Dichter im Himmel über uns alle aufsteigen,
wenn der Himmel grau wird,
und all unsere Gefühle sich mit den Jahreszeiten ändern,
ergreife einen Topf voll Gold,
wenn Gottes Regenbögen seine Gründe...

Morning in JuneIt is morning, my coffee and I sit alongside my grandson. He is still fast asleep, my guest bedroom never used by him. He loves to sleep out in the open and watch Netflix before he shuts his eyes.
It is morning, and I have the morning show on low, hardly paying attention, looking up occasionally....

What Marriage Meant ForWhat is the meaning of marriage
Marriage is about two people
Who are in love irrespective of health,
Of wealth will not abandon each other
But mutually support each other
Irregardless of any circumstances
Will not back out the marital promise
Whether pain or gain will face head on
Facing any storm in life with courage
Never give up but in control willfully
The...

Shadows in the StreetThere is a shadow moving in the street
Hanging over the people you meet
It has no hands elbow or knees but
but it is moving swiftly in the air
and it is causing the people to fear
a warm energy is bursting out of the sun
and the people are flocking the beaches to
absorbing the strange heat, they...

The Palm of your HandsHe Kept looking into the palm of his hands
To see if there is something that he could understand
But the words continue to scroll up and down like
Writings on a page revealing his old age,
There was something in the light that he
Could not see that was draining his
Physical energy, it was just...

Moment No1I’m walking out of quick trip
You’re walking inside
Eye contact that feels like body contact
The smile isn’t missing
I respond with something favorable
I know we’ll probably never see each other again
But knowing we were both thinking something similar means everything
That moment it’s framed in my better days gallery
No you’re not my person but for 3 seconds it...

IrReligious MisEducationS/he is controversially counter-cultural
And yet,
MotherEartha defensively claims,
not so:
We grow trans-regenerational
transubstantiating substances
and subjects
to integrate more sacredly organic
Positive passions
re-connecting
re-membered past peak
pleasures restoring universal EarthJustice
and unitarian EarthMother peace.
I stand before you today
not to bury every conservative re-ligion
but to praise our natural SunGod history.
Rising from East
and setting West
indigenous mystery traditions,
re-ligiously enlightening experience
has always defended human longing
to more resiliently remain
in...

Perspective On People In LovePeople in love usually say with conviction
That they never love anyone else so deeply again
But after breaking up they can always find someone new
Who they think is their true love
Always feels lonely in a crowd and miss places for nostalgia
However, they'll never feel so scared to leave someone again.
People in love feel impulsive, passionate and...

UndoneI am determined to write poems about the poems I’ve already created to alleviate my stress. I vividly recall my first piece about an internet night stalker, who claimed I was like a "dessert rose"—a low-maintenance succulent that made men like him lose sleep over me. In return, they sought redemption, ending their sentences with...

The Life I never lived
I have travelled upon the earth and get lost in work
I have painted the covers of the universe and mingle
With animals in the dirt and have witness the bridges carried away in the sea and rough waves come chasing after me but I hoist myself upon big ships before the thunder rolls...

The Last Day of Spring
Sping is where it all begins
Before the universe came on the scene
Then shortly the summer appears
And drive out all the fear
The mornings were fresh and clean
And clean air from far and near
Floats gentle on the stream
And the ingredients from the sun
Soaked my flesh with its heavenly breath
And the pipes of sorrow quickly fade away
And...

The Performer's MishapThe author hears a collective effort to fulfil his idea, and instantly realises that it is not quite what he had in mind, or even not at all, in some places. But realising the mediator's costs, he may admire it in somewhat contradicting way, just as the average person sometimes wholeheartedly supports the team that...

UnheardThere is music in the silence, in the rest of unheard notes. That is where I hold my breath. Where the universe spins out its code for me to read. I watch as the unfallen sky reveals her mystery. Language unfolds in choreography, dancing between each blink of intention.
But I have questions
If time...
