POEM & FLEETING THOUGHTS

DREAMS

 

I have the dreams

Of a young man,

Denying my age

In my fantasy.

REALITY

What’s done is done

I can’t go back

To right the wrongs

To heal the wounds.

A FRIGHTENING SIMILARITY

IMAGES OF HITLER

 

I first had this feeling whenever I saw Trump signing a new piece of legislation as all around him, Vic President Pence, Paul Ryan and others smiling and affirming their agreement, no matter

Dare they not?

I recall a meeting I once viewed of a meeting with Trump and his cabinet. Sitting around a table each member was given a chance to speak. The comments went around the table as each member present gave a glowing report of Trump’s presidency. Dare they do otherwise?

This recalled an image of Hitler. Reflections of his generals telling Hitler that all was fine as the world stumbled to chaos.

POEMS & FLEETING THOUGHTS: CONFUSION

THE PAST AND PRESENT

 

I recall the little boy

Full of hope

And no one

To give him

Guidance.

Thoughts beyond

His young mind

Could not understand.

 

He became a man

And as in his youth

There are no answers.

POEMS & FLEETING THOUGHTS

THE SECRET MESSAGE

 

I know I promised to return to the art of writing, but thoughts and life interfere.

 

Life

We settle

For the superficial,

That is what we are taught,

What we are trained to accept,

But those

Who think beyond,

Pondering their existence,

Pondering questions

Their life does not fulfill

Risk madness,

Or perhaps,

True happiness.

OUR NATION’S HEART WEEPS

I hesitate to write this piece. Knowing human nature I am sure many will write articles about the tragedy in Los Vegas to express sorrow but a hidden reason, perhaps hidden from themselves, is to draw attention. With this in mind I write this article, not to draw attention but to voice an attitude I don’t understand. Therefore, I am not including any taglines for this piece. I don’t

When Sandy Hook occurred resulting in the death of twenty six and seven year olds, I thought things may finally change. That the nation would wake up to a wrong some hold dear. I have nothing against hunting. But who hunts with a semi-automatic weapon. Handguns are used to protect one’s family. But who needs a semi-automatic pistol to protect that family. I don’t understand how anyone can purchase a mass amount of weapons and not raise a red flag.

As I hear the numbers of fatalities I think this is not a shooting, this is the result of a plane crash. Then when I hear the number of fatalities and wounded, I think, this is not a shooting, this is on the level of a natural disaster. Unfortunately, this disaster is all too natural in our country.

OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS

I fear our species

Is an experiment

To be eliminated

From our precious planet,

Greed and denial

Are the culprits,

Religions encourage

Our destruction,

Our mindset

Offers no help,

Our fate is sealed.

Reality

 

Why do people
Deny the reality
That does not fit
Their beliefs?

OBSERVATIONS & OPINIONS

What is happening in Houston few of us will never comprehend unless we experience such a disaster. There are so many stories that need to be told, here are some.
