You . . .

. . . are a star . . .

You're a star.
Where you wanted to be,
You now are.
From afar
You appear not too different
Than me.
But the scars
You've acquired
Did not come free.

Had I tried;
Had I done all I could
With all my might
Would the ride
Give return on the price
Which was required?
Cast aside
Any thoughts of security.

Newest . . .

. . . incarnation of "Moment" . . .


Hey you down there on the ground
Don’t you think that it’s time
You should fly
And do you consider the cost
Of the pride that you wear
Like a smile

Take this moment
You’ve got here
You may not
Get another try
Sometimes only
One chance comes around
At a time

It’s two that’s the number required
For the dance that we do
To get by
A few drag you into the mire
But they’re strong
Many wiles they devise

Doomed if you don’t learn
Farce is what you earn from the tragedy
What have we to gain
By being stubborn?

Other . . .

. . . end of the night


Silver flecks sprinkled through
The azure sky.
Something was in the air
I couldn't describe.
Little compares even remotely.
What will we feel later?

On the other end of the . . .
All is done and said before light.
It may seem to change when we're
On the other end of the night.

And though it's always dark
At the close of each day.
These are the very hours
Encumbrances weigh upon the calm
Spoiling the stillness.
Seems like a world's crashing.

It's all perspective.
How do you see
What has direct bearing on you?
Oh what a difference;
An hour, a day, a night makes;
Makes all things new;
Clears all air if you just realize.

Don't let a dark despair
Color what lies ahead.
A new tomorrow waits
Up around the next bend.
Just be prepared.
A new beginning's,
With the new dawn, waiting.


Other End

Hoard the wisdom
Take the years and just

What Else Is New?. . .

. . . sounds like the usual paranoid obsession to me . . .


(from https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/30/us/politics/mueller-barr.html)
". . . Mr. Barr also said during the news conference that some of Mr. Trump’s efforts to thwart the investigation needed to be put in “context.”. . . “There is substantial evidence to show that the president was frustrated and angered by a sincere belief that the investigation was undermining his presidency, propelled by his political opponents, and fueled by illegal leaks,” he said. . ."

Happy Again . . .


Want to be happy
Listen here
What would you pay to
Have no fear
Fear of the raptor
Roaming free
Fear of a captor
You or me
Do you fear having your choices
All being taken away

There was a turmoil
We could see
Under the table
Had to be
Way far beyond us
In the fray
We wore the blinders
They slipped away
So many promises made
To a misguided parade of the innocent

Circumstances pushed so many over the edge
Sideways glances directed to drive in a wedge

Want to be happy
Bet you do
Want to be happy
In the things you do
All’s not the same as it used to be
Conscious effort will help us break free

Nothing . . .

. . . new


(from Friends Divided: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson by Gordon S. Wood)
". . . since the Middle Ages the people had struggled to wrest their rights from the twin tyrannies of power - monarchs and the church. For centuries the great had exploited the ignorance and timidity of ordinary people in order to dominate and oppress them. When government was properly restrained by respect for the people's rights, it could be a useful force for good. "But when such restraints are taken off, it becomes an incroaching (sic), grasping, restless and ungovernable power.". . . "

What . . .

. . . a fit!

(from The Emperor's New Clothes by Hans Christian Andersen)
". . . The emperor came to them with his most distinguished cavaliers. The two swindlers raised their arms as though they were holding something and said, "Just look at these trousers! Here is the jacket! This is the cloak!" and so forth. "They are as light as spider webs! You might think that you didn't have a thing on, but that is the good thing about them.". . . "Yes," said the cavaliers, but they couldn't see a thing, for nothing was there. . . "Would his imperial majesty, if it please his grace, kindly remove his clothes." said the swindlers. "Then we will fit you with the new ones, here in front of the large mirror.". . . The emperor took off all his clothes, and the swindlers pretended to dress him, piece by piece, with the new ones that were to be fitted. They took hold of his waist and pretended to tie something about him. It was the train. Then the emperor turned and looked into the mirror. . . "Goodness, they suit you well! What a wonderful fit!" they all said. "What a pattern! What colors! Such luxurious clothes!". . . "
