day 322

i am here

let me be a safe place for you
an open heart that’s ever true
shelter when the tempests rage
to hold you close when you’re afraid
the world can be a scary place
where innocents can be erased
where brute and power is extolled
where hate takes root and turns us cold
please know that I will always be
a refuge safe, where you can flee
when danger lurks at every turn
you have a home where love’s light burns

A poem and a beautiful glimmer…innocence in the face of a fawn. She represents all that is pure and true to me in this crazy world. It is my hope to be a shelter, a friend, a safe place for all innocent souls in this world turned cold. I am here. It seems like such a simple thing to be kind at a time when compassion is seen as resistance.

much love, peace, and glimmers to you

day 65 …speaking of eggs

…speaking of eggs 

Dumpty Trumpty from atop his fake wall
declared to world “I’m the greatest of all
you must bow before me and kiss my fat ass
swear allegiance to me to gain what you ask
but all for a price, you know nothing comes free
and keeping you poor just means more for me
so a tax for your thoughts, your hopes, your dreams
away with the truth, nothing is what it seems
though it may appear that we’re all on the brink
I’ll tell you what you need to fear and to think
It’s time to rewrite all of history’s facts
with a sharpie in hand rename points on the map
dispose of the words and the people I hate
they’ll have to pay dearly to enter the gate
democracy’s great if you know who to pay
we’ll take all your treasure then turn you away
America first, not the south part or north
and only the red in the middle have worth!”
yes, Dumpty’s a terror to all living things
but if you look close, Putin’s pulling his strings.

Occasionally I just need to rant. I suppose I could scream at the top of my lungs in traffic or a crowded store. But I wouldn’t advise that sort of outburst. I do have an alternative…writing a saucy, satirical poem.

So that’s my glimmer for today. If the current state of the world has you feeling concerned, I hope it brings a smile to you. And if not, well, I’m sorry…not sorry.. I hope you’re offended. My favorite new greeting is “I hope you have the day you voted for!”

Peace (I really do wish you peace), love, and glimmers to you…glimmers of joy or glimmers of reality…whatever floats your boat.
