Live Like A Bird
Vivez comme un oiseau
Je pense qu'il est temps d'écouter les oiseaux
tellement oubliés, à cause de ce temps qui s'enfuit
Alors, ainsi, un coq qui chante, ou un chardonneret
devient hélas ! un cri plein de malheur et de bruit
N'est-il pas toujours agréable de se lever très tôt ?
plein de fraîcheur, de vigueur pour écouter les oiseaux
la nature dans sa plus belle apparence, sa vraie peau
au lieu de se creuser la tête avec de la « Morning Techno »
''Michel Fugain chante''
Fais comme l'oiseau
Un oiseau vit d’air...

6 Minute Football
6 Minute Football
The night was a bucket of blackness splashed on a canvas of stars,
homebound in my green Chevy pickup on a backroad emptied of cars.
I could see a house light in the distance, thru trees, like a flickering flame.
I gunned the engine, raced up the road for tonight’s great football game.
Upon stopping, I looked in my mirror and saw some reflections of light.
It was only my buddies bringing the beer, pretzels & chips for the night.
We watched the game, talked and ate, laughing in our work-day duds....

Divinely Rooted
Good evening, my Lady
how are you?
It's the gentleman
who had the pleasure of making your acquaintance
the other night
just wanted you to know
i am so moved by your mystique
like a soft lurking mist you have hovered
just over the edge of my imagination
tempting my savoir faire
from the outskirts
gently tugging at both my intellect
and intuition into propositioning you for a private dance in
nature's valley
take a chance why don'y you?
let me enhance your senses to my intent
...

Being a Man
I see a lot of boys that's constantly being mislead
Hearing a lot of noise that makes them have a big head
Thinking they got it all together by what's in their vision
Sinking & fall into whatever that grabs their attention
Pretty girls in love wit da gangsta lean, da vicious thug lifestyle
a bright smile to da drug money, party with da night crowd
Breaking down Swishers & White Owls next to da cocaine white pile
no patience for education cause they tryna chase dat bag right now
Luxurious & fast cars with wet paint rolling on...

A Discourse Upon the Hypothetically Spiritual Nature of Houseflies
I have found that all one truly needs to go through to the ends of one's life reasonably happy, content and secure within themselves is a conscious possession of the wherefores and whys of an ethical joie de vivre. Many people, myself included, like to augment this with the possession of at least One Space System, or if you will, possession of an inner-relationship with at One or More forms (in some form or another) of Spiritual Cosmology. This enables one to feel themselves working positively through to the completion of a goal for the sake of all living matter whilst simply attempting to...

upon this lovely january morn
a debut saltation for 2024
“I like the dreams of the future better than the history
of the past.”—Thomas Jefferson
upon this lovely january morn,
o how my heart, intrepid in its pulse,
keeps vigil, as the fledgling year is born,
while earth's nerves, in her afterbirth, convulse!
she sucks her first breath from the virgin wind

of life and breath
Sometimes it's the same moments that take your breath away that
breathe purpose and love back into your life.”―Steve Marabol
i remember you
from another world,
elegant one, in a thousand roses.
naked now, of dew,
wherefore are you hurled
whence i’ve lusted for your orgic poses?
where, the stunning blush,

Reflection
Reflection
As this chapter ends, we reflect on the year,
The challenges we faced, that filled us with fear,
The memories we made that made us smile,
The times that made living worth while,
We have encountered many challenges, but we got through,
We have stuck together, tough like glue,
We've made friends, but we lost some too,
I often wonder how we got through,
So much sadness, so much fear,
So much has happened in one small year,
The people we lost, aren't forever gone,
They are watching us and helping us stay strong,
They are...
