Wherefore

Another year's passed
In the blink of an eye
  Time to take stock
  Once more to ask
What, When and Why

What have I accomplished?
When will I do more?
Why have I delayed?

Wherefore, Whereas, Henceforth

Wherefore, Whereas, Henceforth


Whereas the wherefores and hereins
obliterate beginnings without ends
redefine how “fine” relates to “print”
misunderstanding - “that’s not what it meant”  

Therefore it is with great expense
whereas the document just made no sense

this thinking
this Thinker...

Had not this Now

O ,wherefore thou ,is thy Sestina Angelina?
she is not here ., thy love thy dove
thou angel eyes hover...oft high above
Tis thyself, a gentleman who doth wait
whilst  me dreams and longs to view her gracious gait

I must appeal to the day ; canst read her

Wherefore Art Thou?

Wherefore art thou now?
When clouds descended from the brow
Of hills remembered, fields where plough
Churned the earth to take the seed.
Growing like the wheat,
That rose up high to face defeat,
Cut down and ground that mouths may eat
And on the flour feed.

Falling like the snow,
Sent swirling through the streets below,
As human traffic ceased to flow
And halted bowed
