Not a  political message
Find a place in your heart and soul to do good
Listen
Smile
Contribute funds or time
Quit complaining
If you have been down on tbe floor
Get up as best you can
The Naysayer doomsday folks stay clear
Not a Pollyanna
Not Mickey Mouse
Remain Positive

If you gotta pick one over the other
Go with the other
Because if it was the one
There wouldn't be another

do they know of the uproar,
the unrest,
the tirelessly shifting waves
of wind against the window?
So harsh, all through the day,
but it is a severity I can feel safe by,
watching the gusts and hearing the voices
while, in this alcove, everything is still.

there is a scene in my day
when I leave the wretched white-walled windowless building
and a blast of the freshest air hits me,
and it feels like my first breath in hours.
The sun is a glory on my skin,
and I take off my jacket to feel the air on my arms
for the first time in a season.
like that scene in the desolation of smaug when bilbo climbs up a tree and the heaviness of evil in the air can't choke him anymore, and butterflies surround him and the sun shines all over and then he sees the mountain and knows which way to go.

gently, I devour
the music that you play

the strumming and the sway,
the things you can convey

subtle, but the power
of the songs, the silent way

you make the unsaid there
and it becomes

real, authentic, ours.

You
My brain is filled
With thoughts of you

My heart it aches
And beats for you

My love so deep
I'm drawn to you

My life is dull
When not with you

My goal in life
Is loving you

My broken heart
Still beats for you
I'll play the part
A lovestruck fool

Don't know who I am
Or what I want to do
Brain has gone to mush
I only think of you
