Fortress of peace ... 
dark entrance
Graduated depths,
steps icy

No more emotional eruptions
just volcanic slumber — 
Something inside has died

Quiet brood ... 
at what price came this cursed silent relief?
Left with only a lonely penance,
seems the calculations weren’t heartfelt
Wavy shadow movements increase

Flickering regret moments,
tears dripping ... briefly...

I would love to be your companion 
In times when you feel alone
I would love to be your comfort
When life takes a sad turn
I would love to carry you 
When you feet get a little too heavy
I would love to be your smile 
When your...

This one, perhaps, very few would attempt
To write on such a topic, some might scare
But I am old enough that I really don’t care

In this State years ago, you couldn’t choose
A marriage license authorities...

Each animal species has 
its own wisdom to share; 
the human species ego though, 
doesn’t seem to be aware.

Each species has its social structure,

INTER - NATION PRONUNCIATION

My transatlantic friend’s adored
We reach across the ocean
Communications although flawed
Won’t lessen my devotion

She looks pure and sweet indeed
With fair visage clear although her
Voice as if she’s just smoked weed
With pitch half octave lower

Though we’re sharing the same lingo
And her presence makes me...

serious query

 

furrowed anxious brows

 

fear floods

No Primus Inter Pares

‘Brava’ the fight and they are conquering once more

The towel goes right up front and then they have breakfast

They claim their place in...

How to make the deadly seem less murderous,
ICBM, AIDS, HIV,
ICBM, AIDS, HIV,
ICBM, AIDS, HIV,
ICBM, AIDS, HIV...
Acronyms make the fatal commonplace,
Eviscerate the emotion, like machine code,
Surgically remove  the humanity...
DOA, MIA, CCF,
DOA, MIA, CCF,
DOA, MIA, CCF,
DOA, MIA, CCF...
Pretty soon nothing will be real,
And fear will be...

The world is a paradox and
No one can tell
Which is heaven or which is hell
And only the ones left weeping
Will ever fortell
Its not till your booted from the door
That you learn 
What it was for...

a riddle in verse

   What is the number of years
   Israel roamed the wilderness
   if we divide it by ten?

   What is the number of ears
   on a frog duo warbling so loudly

And French Man Frédéric Passy
In furtherance of their goal for peace

And arbitration through cooperation 
And Dialogue 

Mid-wifed an Association of ...
