  • Noticing mortality

    Noticing mortality and feeling what it means to be a carcass heading endlessly  with death our truest destiny. Each breath a gift, each day a boon Each season passing neath the moon Each measured hour a treasury Of moments spent in memory.

  • The Litany continues….

    The Emperor stood naked  while the King had brother woes The Sheikh was counting money He had bought the Emperors clothes. The Tsar was on the naughty step  the Duke had lost his name The guilty with impunity Had hidden all the blame. The Fortune-Tellers crystal ball Had clouded in deceit The Lunatics were laughing…

  • too much

    Congruence unfound amidst the overload of propoganda saturated coverage of all that isnt real manufactured outrage on the airways in our daily dose of misdirected meaning and the anguish that we feel lost within the tumuly of corruption we are blinded by the glare of foggy fusion as we struggle to believe double-speak is burbled…

  • Rubbernecking as September ends….

    As neither side would give an inch polarity grew stronger The algorithm fed the fire and reasoning got wronger The whopping lies got biggerer to feed the giants hunger Objective truth in tatters – we can trust ourselves no longer. These helter skelter whiles, so full of animus and bile resound with ricochet and ire…

  • Days are darkened by the demons

    Nights are worried by the knights Words are lost behind the shouting Reasons hide in Black & White Out of phase with inner meanings Discord dancing, shadows dark Troubled waters breach the fountain Brittle kindling finds a spark. Logic twists the wonky headlines Throwing blame towards the hate People seeking easy answers Free the horses,…

  • No Shame

    Shame on them who profit from The bullets and the bombs On their heads the dirty threads Of sordid goings on Those who make and those who take Decisions to make arms Awaiting their comeuppance In the hall of mirrored harms What goes around will come around To reap what has been sown A manufactured…
