Saying Right Over There and Pointing To the Left

Sometimes Rights
should be left
get your head straight 
forward think
and let common sense
direct you
you can’t go wrong

Banned From the Zoo

Two monkeys sat in a tree
Laughing and pointing at me
It was so absurd
I flipped them the bird
Now the zoo is a place I can’t be

The Stars

The Stars they lead me,
a misty sparkling trail;
The brightest 'GO' sign;
Streaking hope across the sky,
pointing to my heart's desire.

The Origin

The speed of a photon,
  the steps of a man

The truth pointing inward
  —where forever began

Sandals On the Roof

Sandals on the roof
but no one did it.
Each child grinning.
Some pointing to others
A four-year-old laughing so hard
he gives himself away

A Bad Hair Day

Purple spikes pointing toward the sky
Do you suppose he woke that way?
Can anyone tell me the reason why
He'd strive to have " A Bad Hair Day'?

Migration

Wind blows bitter cold,

The loud, honking geese fly south

     In chevron pattern.

Pointing to warmer climate.....

Their annual vacation.

Dawns Hope

New day dawning.
New crowns anointing.
New stars fixing.
Startled pointing.
Amusing excuses, thinning disguise.
Soon morning stars will vaporize.

The Spire

Plumb 
Dead-center
In the heart of the city 
A silver spire
Pointing to the heavens.

Finger Of Judgement

When you point your finger of judgement at others

There are three fingers pointing back at you

Look inward first before pointing that finger!

Crowning Glory

pale streaks
preview
her coronation
orange sherbet
baby blue
now rich magenta
pointing the way...
a reticent orb
abruptly
beams
over the horizon

Which Way

I twisted my ankle last night,
I started to cry at the sight,
for there on the floor
was bone, blood, and more...
Should my left foot be pointing right?

"monster"

Who determines if someone is a MONSTER?
When people point, There are always fingers 
pointing back,
They judge others harshly to make up for what they lack.

A Simple Game

Years and years of decreasing vigilance
     increasingly false moral equivalence

   Pointing the finger is all too easy
     accepting blame makes us queasy

Distant Bells

There are strange wanderings
in the souls
of the most common of men

Where willpower and intellect
come together
—pointing the way

Indulge all the way
Sometimes what you want
Is not necessary

Which finger is pointing
At which direction
