Beached beyond the tide
The broken reveal layers
Of vulnerability

Locked
Inside looking out
Many phases of the moon
Her last loving hug
Locked in with her memories
Grandma sheds a single tear
Time is most priceless possession to the elderly. So to treat them as if their time is “less than” or to prolong taking precious time away from loved ones is intolerably cruel. Instead of the elderly ”taking one for the team” let’s work together so that families can reunite and be whole again.
Wear a mask, socially distance, wash your hands. Let’s beat this thing before it is too late for your loved ones.
Autumn
Feeling very small
Sitting on this cold stone wall
The winds of Autumn
Ikigai
Winds of Change
Seeds of love scattered
Blown by winds of emotion
Clouds of teargas
All we have
Is a few short minutes
To be sons and daughters
Fathers and mothers
Friends and lovers
There is no color
No race
No nation
Only humanity
Let us help each other
To live our best lives
In peace and compassion

Truth is Black and White
I can’t breath
The presence of mind
To set the world on fire
Nothing left to lose
White
House afire
Hot with hate
Washed in vainglorious jactitation
Privilege
In response to Patrick Jennings Pic and a Word Challenge #234: Presence
Untaken
Brilliant
Steps untaken
Parasitic RNA strands
Replicate feeding on ignorance
Isolate

Tiny
You may be feeling very small and insignificant right now, powerless even
You matter and you have a voice
Don’t give up hope
Don’t give up
Don’t give up
Don’t give up…
Tiny golden jewels
Sparkle in cold winter light
Wild beach rose
Your time to blossom will come
Spring thaw around the corner

Tourist
Feeling like a tourist in my own country
Stoned by words of hostility and division
Having to check my patience while struggling
To keep my sense of retribution in check
Because if I allow the malignant cancer of hate
To take hold of my soul
Then I become the problem
And not the solution

Heaven
No more dances
Around the sun
She is now
Back to stardust
