Letter from a Hunter to a World of Farmers
From lofty pedestals, you tell me that I’m sick, abnormal.
You say my mind’s distorted with disorder, with disease.
You sneer that I’m a weirdo, you complain my brain cells dawdle,
you moan, “Why won’t you swing and somersault on Life’s trapeze?”
You moan, “Why won’t you comb your hair and climb that sparkling ladder
up to a mortgage in the sky and spotless mental health?
Why won’t you woo and date and court and watch confetti scatter?
It’s...

Soul-Lar
Never let my mind's eye
become weakened or darkened
For evil that's not even my
Steelo and to act like I don't see it coming would be hypocritical
Earthly devils become afraid
looking into my pupils
They know the power I hold
they cannot control
Because the person I am in
The flesh looks different from my soul…
Golden skin has the Glow…
Conscious community embracing
my flow…..
In the past I was feeling weighed down
by bad people around me
letting a heavy heart just tare
Me apart until I...

History is a Poor Record Keeper.
I miss things I know I shall never witness
But also thank the heavens that destruction will be missed
I switch on the television
If I were Le Prince I would be livid
Thinking of how my life ended
On those tracks as I went to patent
Damn Edison
So called 'father of cinema' is such a dick
But as I sit
I appreciate the efforts
Of the devoted scientist
I appreciate the research of those like Jared Diamond
How location and opportunity are what ensures dominance
Our genetics are not lesser...

Testing Testing One Two Three !

Sollus Salum
To live at all is miraculous enough.”
Mervyn Peake, The Glassblower
..
Time is broad water,
Time is beyond us.
Ruin and rust are evidence
Enough, of its invisible
Erosion,
We regard,
With fatalistic fascination.
Whisper,
Of curses,
As we violate
Tombs and place a
Fortunes
Value, on an oil
Painting,
Of a moment
Lost,
Even, as it is
Depicted.
It desolates
With the patience
Of continental,
Slow drift,
Terminates,
With meteoric
Impact...

Past And Present
Starship USS Stanza engineering log, Stardate April 30, 2020
T'PoetsRevenge, chief officer:
I have observed a bearded man in several areas of the ship
dressed in woodsmans clothes and writing in a notebook.
He appears to be a hologram. Some of the crew and cadets
have been studying different eras in poetry on the holodeck
for Poetry Writing Month. I suspect that this is where he
originated. I have scanned his image into the ship's encyclopedia,
and it is none other than Henry David Thoreau, the transcendentalist of the early 20th century on...

[ NapoWriMo 2020 Collection ] Survival
Qinghai,Tibetan Plateau
Guliya Ice Cap, 12,979 BC
Foreward—Roof of the World
On margins of the plateau
repeated glaciations were abating;
a Pleistocene Epoch, surrendering
to the Holocene, sacrificed its own
venerable mass to swelling sea levels—
save bodies, containers
for microscopic parasites
dormant in permafrost soil
Homo sapien rule had evolved—
rooting all cornerstones of earth;
a near-extinct Denisovan hunting party
tracked yak across the mesa—
its high altitude buffeting lungs;
thoughts...

Here's To The Real Heros
We shut down our cities,
To protect the old and weak,
Lives completely changed,
By an enemy we can't see.
History will eventually tell the story,
And how the battle was won,
That the soldiers on the battle front,
Weren't taught to fight with a gun.
Unsung heroes in white coats,
Science: the greatest asset to humanity,
But, for now, credit will be given to those
Who pride themselves with vanity.
When the deed is finally done,
How...

NIGHTENGALE
I want you all to take more than a glance and really look at this picture.
LOOK AT HER.. She is a Badass warrior!
This lady is the face you don't see! Her and all of the front line soldiers battling a war WE are going to win.
She has over 35 years in the medical field and is the person you see when you walk through the Emergency Room doors.
Take a good look at her battle gear. These people are our soldiers damn it! Training for years and with a lifetime of knowledge.
She is the human being who weeds out the bullshit drama and has to make an educated decision of...

Welcome Home, Commander
So like, I roll up into this cave on one my usual hiking trips taking shelter from a brief storm. I walked by this cave a lot of times but some sort of weird smell emits from it so never stopped to check it out. This time I felt solace in the shelter so the smell was of little concern. I prefer to be dry like a true hiker. Did I mention I work as a post man?
The cave looks like any other cave. Aside from the smell it had all the creature comforts a Neanderthal would appreciate. Stone couches, a love seat made of mastodon bones, and a California king size bed made of oak with a goose...

My Mechanical Heart
I think it was circa eighteen forty something,
When I woke up from the operating table,
The good doctor told me “Congratulations!
Now you can do anything if you’re willing and able.”
I gazed around the operating room,
Which looked like a watch maker’s workstation,
I thought the man was more of a mad scientist,
A nihilist when he told me I was his latest creation.
“I’ve given you something special” he said,
“You can have a long, long life if you desire,
You are unique in many ways but don’t forget,
To wind your gears...
