WEDNESDAY (6/4/09)


N.H. governor signs gay marriage bill
Strolling through the violet forest, bonnets of green, sleeves of red and caps of brown shake their hips to the breeze. Born there, grow old there… die there. They've not much say in the affair. Born red. Born green. Born Brown. Living. Breathing. Crying. Laughing with the wind.

New Air France debris found, explosion unlikely
Steadfast in this expanse, uncovered and brazen like a worrisome thing, undeniably fixed upon its hesitant horror. When did all catastrophes become suspect terror? (We need end our addiction to fanatical dread.)

GOP Rivals Hint at Runs in 2012
Wherever sorrow travels they come running, breathing hard, waiting for an opening, a moment of glee to place their gloom and echo the masters of doom- “Let me lead you there, away from where I led you before.” Don’t follow, turn away from its wagging lips.

Obama Touts Muslim Roots
O show compassion for mankind. Raise him up, bring water to her lips. Sing praises to the seeds of truth. Don’t fall back of this, meet it smiling.

Cheney's Role In CIA Briefings Unusual, But Legal
I can only imagine what moves you… To be honest, truth is quite worthless If it doesn’t burst forth with grand revelation. I mean, if the truth’s been AWOL for so goddamned long, Who the hell knows where it’s been?

sdrawkcaB nruT (Turn Backwards)

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

SKYFALL

Skyfall... We continue to play along with an unnatural game that has serious consequences, soon we'll find ourselves enslaved without recourse to the system. (Is that true of local charades?) Yes. (Why can't we free ourselves from the system?) The madness of money. (It's not money, it's people, right?) It's both, money and us in tandem, thus assuring money's might and our adherance to its loudness. (Madness...) Indeed. © 2017 Mark Richard Prime

THE ROCK HOLDS

The rock holds the soil in and from the soil springs the tree, the green of LIFE rolling from the blue, rising to the occasion of itself. . “Be!”, the (H)eartH declares, “Be what you are!” . (We thought we were!) . (We think we are!) . “You are, but not freely, therefore, only a thought, and a thought without much thinking, as if you were scared into it.”, the (H)eartH added. . [a quietude begins, the truth being heard and heeded, grooving to the flow] ~ © 2017 Mark Richard Prime
