we see what we want to see, though it is getting more and more difficult to see the good over the bad of this world. peace.
Love rhyme
Walk with me in the eager night brass bold black horse billow taste this frontier bone stripped love sea grave green wept willow
trucks, waitresses and dockyards
the dark swam down from the ceiling.. to a world all studded with stars and she turned the key in her pickup.. and drove home like all the rest of the cars she waited for a noise like a phone ring.. to break up all the stories in her mind
Suggestions to make the world a better place.
Stop teaching hatred through bad examples. Stop teaching fear through violent reaction. Stop all the killing. Stop all the war. Stop shouting "gung-ho", when you don't know what its like to see some of your loved ones killed; and you're left stan
The Price of Obedience
Society says this is the way and so I play Over and over again always losing the game From the rules I just can’t or won’t stray In the end I find somewhere to lay the blame For the pain, the feelings of failure, the hole That opens even wider i

Quick Money
The money that is stolen daily by many citizens of this country and others who are rewarded for stealing by coming here has this country and it's people losing their quality of life. I just wish someone would stop this theft.
Transitions
My father died on May 30th, 1990 while I was still in my teens yet I wrote this in 2004 or 2005 when I worked on Cruise ships and inspired to write. In the past, I had a tendency to bury difficult things until I was ready to consciuosly process it through writing...a hobby I wish I had pursued with more passion. Anyways, I thought I'd post it here to mark the occasion.... It is the first time I am posting something this private in a public forum. I'm not sure what category or style this will fit into but I sincerely hope you enjoy it. Thank You.

Old School
I was filled with regret for the two hours and 45 minutes I was there, regret for not asking this beautiful woman out when I had the chance, and for not getting kissed by Crystal in my kindergarten class. What can I say, memories of this place were not the best.

SITTING IN MY DECKCHAIR (2)
I viewed the world's life With my own, with untold strife Full of joys and pain both We are in unison, betrothed Neither could put wrongs right So we sit and ponder into the night We can't go our separate ways So here we sit
My One!
I hope you like it.

Its seem my kitten was booted by someone/something. Enough to break her leg,. I live on a farm, so maybe she came to close to an animal?

Haiku/Senryu Compilation
Senryu is a Japanese form of short poetry similar to haiku in construction: three lines with 17 or fewer morae (or on) in total. However, senryu tend to be about human foibles while haiku tend to be about nature, and senryu are often cynical or darkly humorous while haiku are more serious. Unlike haiku, senryu do not include a kireji or verbal caesura (cutting word), and do not generally include a kigo, or seasonal word. It is often said that both haiku and senryu can be funny, but that if it’s funny, it’s probably senryu. Both haiku and senryu can be about nature, but if it’s about nature, it’s probably a haiku. In addition, both haiku and senryu can be about nature or human nature. Both haiku and senryu can be serious or humorous/satirical. A serious poem about nature is certainly a haiku. And a funny/satirical poem about human nature is certainly a senryu. Tanka consist of five units (often treated as separate lines when transliterated or translated), usually with the following mora pattern: 5-7-5-7-7. The 5-7-5 is called the kami-no-ku (“upper phrase”), and the 7-7 is called the shimo-no-ku (“lower phrase”).
Kiwi Loss
Written in sympathy for the 50 who were mercilessly gunned down and for their friends, families and fellow New Zealanders who suffer these overwhelming losses. Such terrorist acts are an attack against all who hold peace and each other within loving hearts. May our communities find or construct avenues to reclaim civility and health.
