it could be raucous at times,
as free folks are wont to be.
But into this came a man
who said, “We must do better,
some who speak do...

4,004 MinutesMy sister-in-law wants to get the vaccine;
Went onto her state-sanctioned site
And what was before her up there on the screen
Was a number that couldn’t be right.
“Your wait time, in minutes, is 4,004,”
Presented with nary a...

In his ivory tower slept
Fearing naught, though faith-departed
Knowing not his lover wept.

having now ensouled the illusions,
feels separate...

to friend,
from one lover
to another.
It translates to
"You can count on me"
A meaningful phrase
that leaves
an indelible imprint
on the heart
and...
