  • the immigrant. . . .

      Immigrant. . .  I watched as you worked a mind through endless turmoil, sifting and sorting truth and fantasy and arriving. . .  You opened eyes and unblinkingly stated, ‘you have always known, haven’t you? How did you do it?’ I knew I could not take even a moment of self revelation away,  answered,…

  • we laugh to hide our hurt. . . .

      They were just children with a love offering.  It glinted in the ground and when picked up it glittered as a star in the sky.  Of course it would be given to the one loved most!  And with grimy hand and full heart it was.  With words accompanying the gift,  they spilled as starbeams…

  • As I See It. . .

      As I See It . . . . There are no more answers anywhere except those written within the individual on his heart.  It is all there for him to discover and what he discovers will be adequate for this time.  It works to cover tracks and to discover just one more truth which…

  • No Place To Go . . . .

    There are others who have experience in matters not common.  I have kept notes on dreams and researched my experiences.  I could not speak openly and was cautioned much because of public circumstances.  Times are different and I speak for the children who are different. There are babies now being born who have been mentored and…

  • If We Sing To The Children. . but you know. . . .

      There comes to mind that time warp where events leave their linear places and congregate in the place where we know that thunderous motions occur with the simplest actions.  Or even with no action.  Like the times my brother Stanley and I discussed what he saw along the road but knew immediately I knew…

  • the heart will shout its validity. . . . . .

    July 8, 2021  . . I need to put this down before it goes into the forget pile.  As most things do nowadays.  But this I think is most important because we as a nation are becoming most distrustful as well as unforgiving about differences within even our  families.  It is a despairing situation, and…

  • The Scales Are Just. . . .

      We are not  the product of one lifetime, but many lifetimes and many frameworks.  And we are a reference point to other frameworks. ***** The Ego which needs continual stroking becomes unwieldly and obscures divine passage. ***** ‘I am only human’ is an excuse that has been overworked. ***** To dismantle another’s world demands…

  • The Hard Work of Thought. . . .

    It seems going through my head are many things connecting to all things.   Nothing stands alone.  I am not sure  where to begin, if there is a beginning.  Perhaps that is what we have to learn, that there is no beginning and no end.  It can start anywhere for me and therefore anywhere for you. …

  • Pray the garden into a sanctuary. . . . . .

    On May 14, 2021, I posted Time’s Gleanings.  It  is a collection of paradigms as a brief respite in diets of heavy lessons.  My last maxim of that post reads like this. . . ‘Like a dancer learning the discipline of a new score,  we have rehearsed minute by minute to come to this place, …

  • My reason. . . Because Of Love. . . . .

        Explanation Caught in Part. . . In the beginning, in the place where I came from, there was a veil covering the foetus, the skin of man. I remember the place and the one who sent me here. He said it was because he loved me, and all those who would be part…
