Unsettled Vitality
The betrayal offences rendered on us daily unsettles swiftly progress. They simmer and stir and spread. Resentment, unforgiveness lead us to revenge. Bitterness spreads so contagiously like a disease. Infests and infecting all within reach. God’s guidance keep my emotions in check. Clear my heart of all distress. As I mediate on your love and goodness As feelings seem to resurface. I seek your...

Ode to Texas
There’s not much to love in the land of 72 ounce steaks Air-conditioned grace droning over AR-15 soaked Saturdays Remembering is not the problem these days Rather it is forgetting that Children can have new names If they pick them up with their own hands The bootstraps have all but worn off these snakeskin boots And I am tired of something I can’t put...

Premium Member Unsettled Calm
Unsettled Calm Why am I writing this, when they say... really no one cares? I don't believe they are right. The more "they" try to prove themselves, the more "they" show who they really are, and their true intentions. "No one." is out there. Just like me. Wondering if there is anyone left, that is still...

Premium Member It Is the Most Unsettled of Times, the Most Unsettling of Times
~ Welcome to 2022 ~ A time of conventional and possibly nuclear war where no one can be sure what each side stands for A time of global power struggles and shifting alliances in which the old world order cannot be relied on A time of soaring cryptocurrencies with no real-world basis challenging existing monetary...

Premium Member I Was Feeling Unsettled
Greeting children at our school from the car line yesterday. First car seemed to be parked. No one appeared to be in it. Maybe someone is gardening, I thought. The garden is six feet from it. The brake lights came on. I expected a child to get out. No child did. I had a peculiar feeling about it, an...

Science Unsettled
SCIENCE UNSETTLED In times when magic ruled the world When charms and spells gave power and sway Then words of sorcery were hurled To vanquish foes and win the day But now in days more civilised We’ll not decode entrails of birds Though, reasoned thought process devised We still resort to potent words One such expression widely voiced In substitute for fact reliance Flagged with blithe...

Summer on I-10 old van, no air conditioning furnace oven days long hot tiring pushing on dark night stop for directions abandoned buildings streetlamp roadmap landscape moving like waves on the ocean What the hell Open door look at ground no ground only endless carpet of locusts far as the eye can see moving rolling chilling slam door take off I remember crunching sound under tires for miles I shiver...

Premium Member Unsettled People
Unsettled People When you go to HIS house on Sunday, You are greeted with kindness and smiles. No one says a thing as you help yourself to coffee. Spilling it from the foyer all the way… to the farthest seat, way in the back. There no one can bother you, or see if you are sleeping. You...

Unsettling the evening brings with it cold As the night holds the last of the warmth Burrows of her brow lives likely to unfold And her heart leaves with it dire and soft The night holds mysteries from her heart Unsettling the evening brings with it cold Where she buries her feelings to impart Burrows of her brow lives likely to unfold She...

Premium Member Unsettled Sea
While whispers shush on sheltered shores, as soon the cockcrow quakes, the seas descry a skittish sky, sense summer zephyrs wake – roused passions neath the sunrise pulse, the whitecaps throb and ache. Along the crests crawl shallow shades the soaring sun effaces and rains in streams enhance the dreams that fantasy embraces while ocean sprays of yesterdays reveal...

Unsettled Gain
Title: Unsettled Gain A letter from moon came with hopeful Scattering calm and peace for earth’s human beings Opening window I found smile in face of the moon Demanding surety of peace not only keeping words Rays of the sun whipped encircling rostrum Stop such non physical matter address, next Bombs and bullets are today’s religion Why you aren't understanding phases of human...

There is unrest in my heart they say things depend on the sight of the beholder each seeing from a different view. They say men are men and women are alien perhaps it is men who are actually the outsiders? They talk at us and down to us rarely seeing another's view. Is it any wonder we tear our hair out trying to understand their whims. Obsessive...
