Another personal piece today. Why I Write I love my life I really do, though it is hard sometimes. But part of how I deal with it, is through these simple rhymes. The good, the bad, the in between, these poems see it all. They help release the words that I, keep trapped behind…

Well, today it’s back to the introspection thing. Lynn found yesterday’s effort a tad unsettling. Peopling (or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Tolerate The Crowd) Once upon a time there was, a boy who never learned. To be a boy like others were, so all friendships he spurned. He swore he needed…

My wonderful wife Lynn has been listening to my poems this month and mentioned that I seem to be on a self-awareness kick. Apparently, she’s right (as she usually is). What Price the Dream? “Livin’ the dream.” you hear them say, but at what price that dream? The fancy house, the shiny car, are…

Don’t Mind My Mind Oh what a wonder is the mind, Its so full of fears and dreams. It’s wider , higher, deeper and, So much larger than it seems, It’s every God that ever was, And the Goddesses as well. It’s every heaven ever dreamed, And it gave us every hell. The mind is…

To Know The Truth Another day has come and gone, Dusk spreads hen gentle cloak, The fog rolls in across the bay, Like slowly drifting smoke. All sound is muffled faint and far, The world fades away. A streetlight’s just a distant glow, ‘Round which some damp moths play. In darkness dense and damp and…

We Are Cyberspace A billion things, a billion more, And still there’s more to see. It’s anything to anyone, the internet to me. There’s superstars, there’s nobodies, The famous and unknown. It doesn’t matter who you are, You’ll never be alone, There’s legal things, illegal things, Some things are in between. There’s beauty there and…

We’re All In This Together (Except For Those Who Aren’t) Dreaming the days go drifting by, A bit of truth in each. Some grasp the dream and take from it, The lesson it would teach. So many more are lost to it, Content to blindly sleep. They push the dream of truth aside, Let life…
