Of tweeting the truth
he’s constitutionally
unable, or so it seems.

If he’d take to heart
the preamble, maybe he’d
strengthen his constitution.

Row after row of
freshly planted corn – rural
testament of faith.
~
Along comes a flood,
fueled by warming climate,
and faith is all that remains.
Some rites of passage
are to be celebrated,
others just endured.
~
It depends on where
you stand. Are you a witness
or participant?
If easy does it,
why do we continue to
make it really hard?
~

what they come by easily;
choosing labor over faith.
The ways we choose to
commemorate our fallen,
speak to what we hold most dear.

A fitting way to
honor their sacrifice is
to live lives worthy of it.
When the gardener
becomes completely unhinged,
Who will manage the vermin?
~
Nature has a way
of bypassing gardeners
as all rampant weeds know well.
When a president
rages in the rose garden,
do skies darken in Kansas?
~
Stormy visages
and incoherent bluster
won’t dim his faithful’s luster.

He hands out pyrite
in seeming oblivion
that his glitter has no gold.

Who’s fooled by fool’s gold –
the one who passes it out
or the ones who grab a load?
Why do we hurry
through our days when the sun, moon,
and stars keep a steady pace?
~
Perhaps we rebel
against time’s stately pace from
our ephemeral fears?
