on the Journey…

Creativity for the Haiku portion of this blog has been dim these past few years. Something I’m always thinking about… But, lately I’ve been thinking also about the other half, the journey portion, and that has still been continuing. Old doors closing and new ones opening, adventures and travel…

So, until the creativity kicks back in, and maybe beyond, I’m going to be posting about this journey. I’ll mix a little of this happened, with this is happening, to thus are the dreams…

Just a quick update tonight, I’ll be back in a couple of days.

People…

People. People who call themselves

by a name, a label.

People who place themselves

at the head of the table.

People who invoke for themselves

some elusive power.

People who see themselves

as the need of the hour.

People who see themselves

Worthy of all honor.

Who see their god as helpless, ineffective,

in Towers imagine,

Themselves above all others.

Remembrance

Frigid, midnight blue,

Relentless seas roll over…

Edmund Fitzgerald.

…for kings and all those who are in authority, …

Pointing your finger,

Placing blame where it belongs!

Looking in mirrors.
