Dig Deeper
When faced with an issue
cash won’t solve
— you haven’t got enough
********
One Thing
Forever
to question
Rebuking
the answers
In search of
that one thing
Defining
— the ask
********
Every Recall
Memories …
the only thing
we get to keep
Everything else
with time
retreats
Feelings
relived
in every recall
To cherish
or learn from
— the large and the small
********
A Dark Capitulation
One year
follows the next
Until death
comes to claim you
Though most
uninvited
Its presence
commands
A dark
capitulation
You follow
it downward
Where heat
from the shadows
its fire
— commands
********
Enemies Waiting
No one
escapes
from violence
unscathed
But no one
of valor
looks off
from the fray
Enemies
waiting
upon
the hard earth
Where living
or dying
to each
— has its worth
***********
Split Screen
Everything
and nothing
together at once
The horizon
keeps moving
— duality’s myth
*********
Caught On A Tightrope
Campaigning
in poetry
Governing
in prose
A tongue
that’s been forked
Deceit
in the throes
Saying
but one thing
Doing
another
Caught
on a tightrope
Skirting
— forever
*******
Opposites
Just not
being wrong
will not
make you right
Opposites
joined
imploding
— on sight
