The philosophy

of language

its essence

rephrased

 

The alpha

and beta

unknown

without names

 

All dialects

freeing

the sound

of the ink

 

Without words

and their meaning

could

— we ever think

 

(Villanova University: April, 2024)

 

 

When you no longer

carry

the burden of proof

 true freedom

— in the wind

 

(Dundale: April, 2024)

Silence ignited

sound into kindling

Sign language robots

— ears set afire

 

(The New Room: April, 2024)

Everest

makes brothers

of the fiercest  

enemies

of the most

distant strangers

of the worst

ill intended

of the lost

— and the found

 

(Kathmandu: May, 1982)

Freedom

without

conflict …

wishfully

thinking

 

Liberty

triumphs

at the point

of a

sword

 

The way

it’s been

since

the very

beginning

 

Give me

one

example

disproving

— my words

 

(Wayne V.F.W: April, 2024)

The windmill is ready

the wind is not

Breezes far distant

never reaching the spot

 

Change in the offing

consent from within

One breath pouring outward

— and blades start to spin

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2024)

To stand in

Your shadow

its welcoming rim

Surrounding

my calling

to lead me within

Your aura

completes me

and lights up my way

To follow

undaunted

—Your love on display

 

(1^st Book Of Prayers: April, 2024)

 

I know it’s

written

I don’t know

why

The heavens

tremble

as poet’s 

cry

 

To stand

anointed

in love’s

review

And pose

one question

rephrased

— anew

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2024)

Itching

itching

nowhere

to scratch

 

Rambling

rambling

balling

the jack

 

Freight car

open

voices

interred

 

The brakeman

singing

“Turn

“Turn

“Turn”

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2024)

 

Distance

is different

spurning

direction

 

The miles

a marriage

time

has divorced

 

Spaces

concurrent

flowing

together

 

As coming

and going

fade in

— remorse
