I AM STILL LEARNING
DISCOVERY
I use to think
I knew it all until
someone asked
me a question.
When I swaggered down
the steps of the university
with my BA in my hand,
the world said, "Sit down
and I'll teach you the
rest of the alphabet."
WAKE-UP
It has been a wonderful
journey since the day
I realized how wonderful
it is to be a continual
learner in the never
ending School of Life.
I'm still learning to live
every day admiring the
beauty in the garden
of life where I have been...

Guns in Sweden
Guns in Sweden
Sweden has problems with too many guns
shoots hole in the night.
Many refugees came to Sweden, who thought
when the refugees discovered a Nordic paradise
they would become Swedes overnight.
The inhabitance of this Eden has a discriminatory heart.
The glance of an eye tells the truth.
There was a clash of culture.
People of the same philosophy likes to live close to each other,
for them, Sweden has a cold heart.
No work no education, guns are easy to buy.
I donīt know the solution
Perhaps the Nordic people,...

In-skirts
In-skirts
My soul clangs against my brain
Like an empty prisoners cup runs against cold metal bars.
Radiating and disturbing the silence
of an otherwise ignorant peace.
Chambered in its hopeless plea for freedom,
settles back onto to its tiny cot, bewildered,
dingy with grief in a sea of wrinkled, restless dismay.
No savings grace, no heros ride,
no best-ever recipe (file baked inside)
can free me now.
This is the in-skirts of reality
This is where we get stuck
Stuck moving
From one parent to the next ...

Emasculated
Copper lay upon his closed eyes
Index to bound lips
A solemn shush
No widow cries
The morning comes and light rises all the same
His legacy is carved in stone, just a name to mark a fresh grave
Subdued as a boy, now a man to avoid
Haunted by stolen years he barely survived
Unable to process newfound feelings
Forever two steps behind and drowning
To entertain an illusion of safety he must silence himself
Refrain from sharing his mind and crawl back inside
Too confused to experience new senses beyond his comprehension ...

Trauma
The garbage
of life,
cunning smoke
on the other side
of the limit,
a voice rises,
there's no poems,
only the sound & fall
of industry,
and the billboards,
they gash &
tear at my eyes
while driving.

Sunday Shoes
inspired by wife Vanessa
Can you walk a mile
In my Sunday shoes?
Go to places I've been long and wide
Or some places you'll pay your dues?
Can you wear my shoes
That danced in God's praises
Cutting a step or two
Head reared back and voice raises high
Those old dusty Sunday shoes.
I walked places far as well a near
And back again to anywhere
To any place I want to go from here
And then again.
To marches long for freedom's cry
To church on a dusty country road
To the fields where cotton...

a writers life
A WRITERS LIFE
There is on Facebook pictures of dead film stars
like Elisabeth Taylor, who was born in London
and photos of her childhood.
I donīt really care about this. We should remember her
as a great actress, see her movies and shut up.
Then we have Ernest Hemingway, who is one of me
favourite writers, alas, he often appears in the picture
of his life, not so much about his writing, more about
his adventures, which I do not care to read about.
Dos Passos, another great writer, lived a smaller amount
of daring-do, but he surpassed...

to thine own self (and you) be true.
To find that secret place
'Tis once buried;
O' fathomless profound
thine own storied [mis]fortune
pondering the mere slight.
Perhaps thy burning thoughts
of divinely need?
As once, such burden form and fit
when hidden o'er dawn's dewy hilltops
of grassy blades
that cut
a deepest green
mixed
amongst crimson hue'd;
Hence so dense and heavy marked
here, in all acquired bold,
conjoined by sheer providence, now ours.
Keep chested locked in iron clasp
forever shared betwixt
us two, ...

DARING TO BE ME ( # 8 )
BOUNDARIES
As I gaze around me,
regardless of the context
of the place or the
people, I always
SEE
BOUNDARIES.
Yes, some of them,
such as traffic laws,
protect my safety;
banking laws protect,
most of the time,
my savings and investments.
Then there are those
rules and laws created
by none judges and legislators
who try to create boundaries for
MY LIFE.
Boundaries that try to keep
me within the fences they
think are best, for example.

preferences in...

DARING TO BE ME (#7)
HUMILITY
Words are, in my opinion,
among, if not, the most
powerful forces in the world.
With words, we start
wars. and with words
we end wars.
With words, we start
a love journey and with
words we end the journey.
With words, we reveal the
opposite of what our
resume may claim or
position we hold affirms.
When I affirm I am
DARING
to be me, I am not
launching a promise
to treat others less than
kindly, lovingly, and special.
Perhaps in the past I haven't,
BUT,
now I am daring...
