Two Parts of the Hole
Where is the comfort?
where is the joy?
Seems
so long they've been away.
Far Away.
Seems so long so long so
long.
So long since the love of a
partner.......
and now, a dead child, a dead
child.
(I heard what I said. My child is
dead).
Joy. Comfort. Comfort. Joy.
seem
no longer to be options, at
least
not being so the way...

Out of Style but In Luck
Out of Style but In Luck
My walk takes me through a dimly lit hallway in a downtown business building of Natchez, Mississippi. From around the corner, a woman walks toward me. I immediately recognize her.
I ask her “Do you remember me?”
She smiles wide and replies, “How could I forget those bell-bottoms pants and that plaid shirt? You were mighty sassy but we got you through it.”
I smile back and reply, “Did you read my obit about me being enrolled in your typing class at the time of my death?”
“Oh, now you’re playing head games. I...

Let it All Be (instrumental by Mors)
I'm out here living this life
Its the only thing I know
Living it right not living it twice
Time ticks on to a close
Even if I could not understand it
I'm a man now but couldn't have planned this
Fill up my cup and Imma tipping it sideways
spread it on out, yeah, I'm riding it longways
Till it come back round
Still, I stay with the fat sound
Knocking at my door like they looking for more
Like I took it like a whore like I cook it in my core, yeah
-
I wanna be free, words I weave
I let it all be and ...

A...Leading Many
A king leading an army of many followers came across a wizard, who said, “with my powers, you can defeat many armies.” The king took the wizard with him to the next battle, and before the warriors even engaged, the wizard went to the front of the line, and recited a magical verse that protected those who had proclaimed heartfelt submission to the king whose name was pronounced at the end of the verse. With this protection, the king’s men were able to win many battles, slaughtering many warriors, and enslaving any women who survived the onslaught.

The Takla Makan Mystic (a story from the infancy of my prose writing)
The Takla Makan Mystic
(a story from the infancy of my prose writing)
The warm dry air and burning yellow sands stretched out to the horizon. The sand dunes had exquisite forms and ripples and dust devils swirled about this harsh brutal land.
The train pushed ahead and Gesar thought about home. Back home, far away from the desolate Takla Makan desert, was a land of rolling green mountains and mists with the Yangtze cutting deep gorges. There, panda bears lived high up in the forest of bamboo and eucalyptus. There it was peaceful in some...

My 'religion of peace'
I look back into the course of human history
and see hundreds of millions
of people dead,
many more than that suffering,
and many more than that deluded
by this so-called "GOD":
be it the "God of Abraham"
or "Allah".
I look into the present state of humanity
and see hundreds of millions
of people suffering,
many more than that ill,
and many more than that still deluded
by this so-called "GOD":
be it the "God of Abraham"
or "Allah".
I ask what is common through-out all of this?
I see...
