“Unable for so long to smile”
```
Unable for so long to smile—
Tense facial muscles ache,
Yes one’s heart has grown
Three fold.

The body relaxes
From previously unthinkable
And unknown tensions.

Greetings, My Friend
```
     Today
This hand
Reached out

You withdrew
Unwilling
To stretch your hand
Across the chasm
Of time and change

     Widening

Moving ever further
From the place of her birth
The mature planet Earth
Soon found herself at home
In life’s generating zone

Paths II, v
```
Hateful utterances
Express our bigotry;
As caught in the whirlwind
Thoughts of mass minds decay
We lose the direction
Of formerly trod ways.

Epiphany on the Palouse – E. Education

While doing research for my new book,
THE METEORIC RISE
OF THE THIRD RIGHT SANS GRAVITY,
Subtitled, “The Magma Farta
Of the Third Millennium,”
I had to acknowledge that Rush
Must be right:  Millions and millions
Of lemmings can’t all be wrong headed
Wrong headed.

The Swinging Pendulum

When the fairy tale finally ends
Our dreams become discordant
And we find ourselves wandering
Nakedly alone through the nightmare
Of knowingly created Existence.

We return guilt ridden to one hour Sundays
And sing with mechanistic certitude
The songs rotely learned as absolute,
Further atrophying our Essence,
While rejoicing at being saved
From ourselves.

Through Pisces to Aquarius I

                  I
We began by innocently
Throwing stones and brandishing clubs.
Arrows, spears and slings for the hunt
Soon become swords and catapults;
Armor, moats and castles surround
A fearfully huddled people
That quickly develop methods
To raise levels of violence.
Revenge.  Many lives for a life
Accelerates the race toward death.

“I want to taste your love”

I want to taste your love
As together we become one
In the warmth and security
Of each other’s arms and bodies.

While two days will be eternal to us
We shall experience all in total.

All will end, but only in time’s scope,
For it will remain forever in our hearts
And minds as we pass beyond time.

A Map

I AM the Eighth Energetic
Located at the nexus point
Within the Cross of Creation
Now ready for You to Open

Find it   Know it and Realize
The One You are Destined to Be
