Cultural Mores Mirrorthe moral landscape changes
with new blood surfacing
amplifying the flaws
inherent
in the collective psyche
my ingrained prejudices
bubble to the surface
harming
my interaction with my fellow man
disagreeing
with my elders
ancient scripts
based upon oral traditions
faithfully handed down
and embroidered upon
to suit the occasion
holding a mirror up to my heart
I had to distil my own truth
I refrained...

The day, the soil lab took care of him, and I sighed
Categorical exclusion, You were there, but almost Nye!
My outspoken, my hidden, my own darker trace
My grace, rancid disgrace, my song and my own mess
Did I ever tell you? I loved you with all my heart, I loved you all!
I had no desire, there, my...

Death came a stalkingIn the realm of the heart which served as our guide
For vanities sake we cheated and lied
And all of the signs that lighted our way
Now darkened and silent had lead us astray
In our haste to proclaim that all must belong
We abandoned our will to see right from wrong
So we searched to the west, we searched...

a cow at the table“There’s a cow at the table,” I whispered, not wanting to be rude.
It’s horns curled like question marks, which seemed quite Apropos
Now that I’ve been to college, I can tell you, there’s a lot that I don’t know.
But a cow at the table, no matter how well dressed, left me, well, confused.
“How do you Dooooo?”...

Buffalo CityHe took a plane to Rapid City
Hoped the bike trip would be pretty
Took a cab to where the trail began—
He had the spark of a younger man.
Next day he cycled on the Mickelson Trail
Though he knew he was in a moving jail
Higher ups told us he must be kept down
If left alone, he'd gain a...
