Savanna - Phoenix Arizona
Poet
How is silence found
in a loud crowd of tears?
Why wonder how epiphany is spelled.
As if it mattered in a shell full of shadows.
Reflection changes walking around a pond,
of the same tree incessantly revolving.

"A vision or perspective of the future determines
many outcomes to an individual, a culture, of a nation and the world.
The focus of my writing and associated poetry relates to the question:
What is the sacred, serene, vision of the universe? The one that is flexible
but yet can withstand any storm. The one that keeps balance, unity, harmony.
The one we can almost touch but take for granted. Much like the subconsious
events of human interaction. It reacts, results, but is rarely daring
enough to expose itself. When it does it can be deadly or lucky. This
gamble is the poetry of humanity, and the very thing that creates cruel
injustice and also victorious justice. The fear to gamble creates the
ruts, the prejuices, the unfairness and the lack of progression. This
quiet death in the unawares habitat is the very thing we hold dear. The
freedom of the soul that is taken in stride, makes the winged bird fly.
It most harms those who take freedom of speech for granted. It silences
forever into oblivion. However becoming conscious of our interactions
being honest with ourselves, being honest to others without diclamers
creates eternal elightened innocence."
Breath of Wind
Twilight
christening the dawn
in curious changing shadows of earth
Standing at crossroads unparalleled
Like a baby taking the first breath
before it hushes its first cries
to live.
