poetry,
Looking in the mirror
Dead eyes blunted and wasted
A broken face scarred and withered
The smile a whisper of sand on a ocean desert
Tiny downward curves mirror either side
A face of abdication and abandonment
No fight left, no warrior left standing
Time pushes me backwards to stumble over life
Long spent tears and love curdled
Once unmovable now unmoved
Rejecting the image in hateful disdain
Pity for the life betrayed
and mourning the long dead life

It's getting hard to write poetry
with the hatred going on in society
Here's to permanent emnity-abdication
Light and Love to the rescue, our salvation

Contrary to modern palates,
truth does not come in preferred
flavors…
nor does truthful meaning
morph into something more suitable
to any particular taste – truth is truth,
as time is time, when squandered,
a fool’s passage….
Love, alone, is
truth’s equal; Love, the only
journey worth taking...as no
truth can be found outside of
love –
we love things into
perfection,
and live that pulsing light
of pure spirit
or die an eternity of fruitless
seeking….
Death is not God’s chosen
intervention...
It is the manifest lie
of our own abdication –
