Life is water
Slipping through your fingers
No way to hold or preserve
...
Jogging down the road, bright clear warm day
Past a home for the elderly, retirement place of some sort.
Old, old man in front of me, barely moving, foot by foot, seeming lost.
...
Pravda:
Two dead at Chernobyl.
No need to worry.
All is under control.
...
Gripping the cart, knuckles white with fear
He gazed what seemed a mile of aisle
Cases stacked full with dreamy whipped
Flavor on flavor of cool refreshing
...
The wolf in darkness
moonlight on her hungry pups
bullet cold as night
...
Two miles down
In the eerie dark depths
She sleeps
The cold current sweeps across the barnacled rails of the bow
...
Are you were you man or myth?
You died with bloody hands
Our necks outstretched to see you suffer
We nailed our indifference like an edict through your flesh
...
The bulldozers plowed the remains
Into a ditch
Dreams crunching into memories
Tumbling over possibilities
...
No battering ram can penetrate
Walls that have no logic
Make no sense to common
Knowledge.
...
Decisions made on money
Are quick-fix vanities
Sure to please the rabble
...
