Poems

When a terrible thing occurs

and we query ourselves why,

well, it's only time and space

As we contemplate how now

God's grace hath forsaken us,

well, it's only time and space

Wonder about a brutal world

where lives get paid unfairly,

well, it's only time and space

Worry what'll happen to you

after all your atoms crumble,

well, it's only time and space

Bespoken of our faithfulness

belief in omnipotence power,

well, it's only time and space

There's no good reason for the word 'Gods' anymore,

unless you're discussing Homo-sapiens superstition

and if the myths tell you to murder innocent infidels

then you're a bloody hellish psychological condition

Oh if just but a century

a couple more decades

another goblet of years

Oh why not two month

even weeks sounds OK

simply wanting todays   

Roundup 'pon one hour

wind down all minutes

final breaths a second's

A burst of poems, all on the mark

Emerging from a single spark

A lighter load, a gentler way

Free flowing from a mind at play

A string of hits, each one a find

Evolving from a conscious mind

A softer smile, a harder laugh

Forthcoming from my better half

Negativity, jealousy, egotism, bad trips

unkindness, sarcasm, injustice, gossip

Selfishness, hunger, murder, bad seeds

cynicism, hate, warmongering's greed!

I love your poem

I love it 'til death,

the clever rhyme,

my favorites best

Why does an apple turn brown

why do all suns eclipse moons,

why's their disease in our town

what cause caterpillar cocoons

Why do clouds thunderous clap

how can the liquid stay cupped,

who makes a Venus fly trapped

why capped doth volcano erupt

I get to go to the market, I get to stay in my home

I get to have a roast beef, I even get to have none!

I get to cry wee wee wee, all the way to my home

I know what's important, and I know it's not me

see how most things of value are ultimately free

understand why reality's the choice of free wills

where love sits 'pon high, and when she 'tis still

If we're following our bliss

and learn how to be happy

all can create true poetries

gifted by human birthright

Here in pure nowness of truth

led sternly by scientific proofs

all future humanity 'pon earth

'tis multiplied at factual worth

Our evolving human crowd swayed,

listened intently to wisdom speaker

intelligently orating faiths scientific 

uniting in logical love's rational fact
