Waiting for the geese family
Have they flown away
Or changed their feeding schedule
Or
expectations rule the mind
Into disappointment
Serendipity meanwhile presents smiling
tweet chirp warble
Curious puppies
dropping water
Civil society
cloud wars
Any
one
at once
With all.
The inward quest reveals
The quantum truth
The quest that leads to
anyplace
Right here
Where the geese are.
Memorial Day 201
Bombs into fireworks
Ohhh!!!! Into ooh
Ahhh!!! Into aah
Exploding light
Into bursting clarity
Still
Innocents learn crazy killing
Violence sold and marketed
Battle cancer
The war on…
You name it
Always fighting
–the traffic
–poverty
–time
Until the end is declared
As evolved through
each mineral crystal
Each dramatic flower
Each loyal dog
Namaste
Go in peace
Die to all
I am not
Phoenix ashes
Drift watchfully.
High-end users
Create what they desire
From money technology life
Only one is not exclusive.
Sit and watch the clouds
Take in the setting sun beyond
my towering grandfather cottonwood:
To be either ethereally floating in the sky
Or binding the earth and elements
In a dance of exchanges —
I’ll love you both
As only a human can
As the age of worldwide desecration continues
Let me sing with the wind
So everyone can hear and choose.
Progress liberates
Too many dreams
Of grandeur
So smart and
So stupid
I cry for
Canadian tar sands
Technology doesn’t cure
A broken heart
Desperation has always led to ultimate defeat
Go home
Everyone
Where it is quiet
And decide what to do
Jesus is the reason
You too can be a messiah
Confronting the ills of the world
Forgiving the past
Just hope it doesn’t become a religion
A static constitution
Just you
Doing your god-given thing.
