the loneliness of family

Claims of love, but if you truly care
don’t incarcerate to get help for their pain
don’t shove them less than ready from your sight
be help, be care, be there for the people in your life
 -- oh, right, we don’t have time

'18 ides

Humanity’s fatal flaws: disorganized and lazy
 
 
Old, eroding
rock to sand
more easily blown into waves,
carried to oblivion
 
 
 
soclib sem 2 (the School
 
 
Everyone has their stories,
and they are fascinating
mused with imagination
would we not rather share, engage with
daring quests, brave romance, laughs of surprise  
so much more fun, entertaining, even wise
than hiding behind barriers of hateful cruelty,
isolated, lonely, in despair with no stories
but our boring old self-deprecation?
Please, release these wonders you could become
to everyone.

[soclib seminar (the School)

2/17-3/9/18
 
 
Self-centric
values
enjoyment, not judgment
The world I want to rule is my own.
 
 
This is how our world ends -
not with a bang,
but with endless slings and arrows.
 
 
This is a nation in pain
Why do we not embrace and share,
live to feel committed and valued
better to listen than snipe and die
 
against in helpless rage
holding our selves apart, alone,
in agony, instead of a part of our cure
 
 
Need I proclaim grudge – what ought that mean?
You who deny me not from malice but ignorance.
 
[soclib seminar (the School)
 
 
Someone convinced us that economics was the point
of society – development and distribution of resources
is what we believe we are about.
This obviously lead to misuse of resources and devaluation
of actual life.
 
 
Bodies, beings
plucked from life
to please your grandiose
dream of destiny,
human
 
 
Some kind of ghost,
taking in the sights, the sounds,
the sewer smell, the harsh cold wind;
but with no solid, discernible, existence 
 
 
People aren’t sheep
-- we’re wolves
 
 
Enjoying me
in all moods and activities
 
 
an artist at heart,

my driving interest the human condition
