What Happens

What happens,
when you think
what you've written,
is wasted ink?

I like to believe that once a thought is captured in writing, it is read, interpreted, admired, accepted, rejected or modified. As time passes, it may stand alone or it may combine with other thoughts. In either form it has the chance of becoming immortal.

I like that interpretation.

Searching

Part of our life is handling the loss
of a loved one. There are many ways
not unique to myself. I wrote this, 6 years
ago. Prophetic, perhaps but my feeling
at the moment.

Humor, Must Be In Place

Humor must be in a place,
when we write of our emotions.
If not, are we human?

May I (Story 1)

May I tell you a story,
of a long time ago,
when myths were real,
and adventures were so,

fantastic to read,
let alone go,
to the end of the world,
for the big show.

An early time,
in the life of Man,
or all Humans,
you must understand.

A time of joy,
a time of strife,
when a husband,
searched for a new wife.

Not all woman,
are stronger than she,
but this lovely one,
was stronger than he.

Her strength, in numbers,
was the shape of her hand,
she caught all the tear drops,
which fell on this land.

A Story (2)

A story so strong,
it would never fail,
for it was only once,
when you could hail.

Love of another,
more beautiful, than thee.
Love from the many,
who could make you flee.

Flee this world,
which we now see,
full of sadness,
and no civility.

Go from this place,
you poor excuse for a man.
Quit abusing your power,
which you don't understand.

A Snake, A Serpent

A snake, a serpent,
a dragon, for three,
sat in a circle,
trying to see.

What was the reason,
for our visibility,
which was one of fear,
when it should not be.

We are good creatures,
we know it is true,
but our images were destroyed.
How do we fix? What can we do?

Remove from the Fables,
which soils our name.
Give us some credit,
which we can retain.

Make stuffed animals,
which are scary, not.
Give it your all,
for it's all we've got.

Alas and alack,
the deal wasn't made,
so be careful outside,
don't lay in the shade.

Snohomish, Skagit and Island County
