Unclear Eye

The floor that we walk on

Spaghetti lace dress

I move with slow intention

To see the best

Of a world encompassed in moss

Unclear to the eye

The thunder of hope

Beats out

To hear the notes

In the sky

Dysfunctional

What was the place

Where we began

To lose our minds

The dysfunction of time

Wasted

Is now set

Deep in my pen

As I write to you

A verse

Of confusion

In a life

That has become

Much less

Amusing

Uncovering Meek Virtue in Our Lives

Where is such a talent

A virtue buried

In the wide open

Spaces that make up

Life that we live

How can we be

Such complacent beings

With no sense of

Mortality

I ask this as a hopeful

Idea

In the back

Of your mind

Endurable

To be endured

With long hands

Holding the grips

Of the changing world

What we feel

Is what we live

And what we hear

From those we know

We make a certain jump

From the life

We have had

Cynical

The cynical words

Fell from my lips

Regrettably

At the time

Imperfect

But what is perfection

If procrastination takes hold

So I am working through

The errors I have made

To be a better

Man

Income Comparison

The value of

Goods

Or actions

Compared to the weight

Of words

What is the measure

That holds all equal

So that we can see

What happens

To us

When we are sold

For nothing

On the selling block

Kindly Political

When was the last

Cordial

Political

Movement

Of virtue over

Destruction

Is that posible

In today’s world

With hard words the norm

What can we do

To be kind to

Each

Other

The Wisdom of Bird Flight: New Heights and Intentional Wisdom

Foolish birds

Fly over Lake Michigan

Take a look

With one single span

Of the wings

Brings new

Heights to the flight

Of the bird

My own eyes blink

Like a crawling wave

Where the bird flies higher

At the path

The bird is precise

As any other form of life

So what seems

Foolish to me

Is intentional

Wisdom from a

An animal

In the sky

So return the

Birds to the sky

To keep their wisdom

Over my simple thoughts

So the flight of the bird

Makes my own thoughts

Weak

In my head

My mind can learn

From the flight

Of the bird
