walking on dry hallowed ground
I pray for some rain
*We are under a drought with no end in sight....

summer heat. early.
one lone April day, then cool.
Climate's muscle flex.
We eternally
Await their joint appearance
Aurora, clear skies

Clear sky
SUBSTANCE
The newspapers cut and pasted
Into mounds of different meanings.
Social media scree-shotted, and not
A single fact checked; factless propaganda.
What made sense at some forgotten
Point is garbled now, and corrupted,
Disjointed, deformed and senseless.
The world has lost its substance.

PARETO GOT IT WRONG
Pareto got it wrong with his
Eighty-twenty, that ratio that
Was a cornerstone of modern
Management taught to countless
Masters of Business Administration
Who went on to mismanage
Businesses and other people’s
Lives. One percent of the world’s
Inhabitants now owns ninety
Percent of its resources, and
That one percent continues to
Fan the flames of inequality and
Class conflict.
Heat shimmering air
fills with dancing phantoms as
thunder heralds rain.

a big flower fan
garden under a clear sky
three cheers for the spring!

By the fire
children bake bread-on-a-stick
Birthday highlight
It feels redundant,
all these blurted I love you's.
Yet each is fresh truth.
Why shy from repeated cheer,
but not its repeated lack?
