What? Is this a joke?
Stop laughing at me right now!
I'm Frickin' SERIOUS!

Never forget ~ a
roomful of smiling children
transcends color and class

---

before corruption
before the teaching of hate
love is all they know

---

Chinese children smile
American finance crashes
Factories closing

-

Globalization
does not make the children smile
anywhere in the world

---

Humor like beauty
is very much in the eye
of the beholder

-

"Look Li, the children
haven't laughed like this since the
old clown caught on fire..."

---

simple happy joy
how the hard world changes you
to become like us

shards of bottle glass
and the roots of great mountains
worn smooth by the tide

-

worn leather boots and
my grandfathers' old knapsack
trudge along the coast

-

Mendocino was
a special place my spirit
will never forget

-

if god is in the
details, I suspect he is
developing stones

she crawls the beaches
of Mendocino for stones.

Ocean rock and roll
forming lingams on the shore
worship or ignore

shifting in tidal structures
give new arrangement

Spirals macro and
micro, a trick off an old
muslim's mosque window.

Hand-formed metal
the Tree of Life leads us to
fractal paradise

-

Intention joins craft
on the path to one man's not
so secret garden

---

Twisted metal forms
Intricate lacework of leaves
Leading us within

---

love's labors not lost
vision patience skill combine
beauty its reward

who has wrought this art
no simple smith at his forge
mind & spirit speak

this threshold beckons
discoveries within its frame
beyond, more await the eye

---

metal lacing crafted
framed, flowing, inviting
a soulful boundry

---

the gate unopened
my dark twin the gatekeeper
I cannot confront

"menja bé, caga
fort i no tinguis por a
la mort!" my good friends

---

grand schemes of man pause
nature calls in her own ryhme
we laugh at her joke

Margaret Thatcher
in tweed skirt and trousers with
a pair of brown pumps

---

This is just plain gross
A defecating statue
Made me go, like, yuck.

---

shitting on christmas
is a festive thing to do
better than spending

-

the moneymen squeeze
and the credit is crunchy
your name is Jacques Merde

---

Improper function
Input without an output
Leaves us full of shit

---

saved the best for last
pardoning myself early
let them wipe my ass.

-

"Thanks for Gravity"
Grace before letting one go
is appropriate.

-

The most over-rated:
Fucking. Shitting, most under-
opines the old man.

---

Finally, whew!
The wise men show,
They couldn't have known
I need to poo!

born in the darkness
this music moves through the blood
out into the world

---

deep reaching desires
follow the guitar cable
to the hands that play

---

Angst and misspent youth
crushed against a throbbing stage,
so glad I did that!

-

A secret confessed
It's trite I know but I have
always loved Hopey

---

Under the hot lights
equal parts inspiration
sweat blood -- we rock!

-

When I was thirteen
my whole life changed in one night
a rock and roll show

---

primal expression refined
thru technology
amplification of spirit

-

troubadour of his age sings
exhilaration
vibration joins all to one

---

Instruments, lights, GO!
The rockin' band is on stage
Crowd roars approval.

-

WHO concert, rowdy
Hot dogs hit the opening act
"Fuck off Toronto"

contemplation of the all
silent spirals bloom
body mind space time intertwine

heartbeat of the universe
rhythmic pulse of life
creator's fractal echo

the eternal conduit
particle & wave
love's total expression, light

---

Yantra for humankind,
engraved in stone
in transit through hereafter

---

The essence of One
Encompassing all the world
Truth, simplicity

---

Under the bodhi
tree sits the universe, legs
crossed and infinite

-

Bodhisattva free
sitting 'neath a tree, opening
but is it still me?

nature sighs... ready
echos of her lullaby
leaves of red & gold

-

leaves of red & brown
fall upon the mossy ground
tells the trees are bare

---

The harvest over
chill winds scrape the northern hills
winter is coming

-

Colors of autumn
nature's beautiful palette
fades to gray and black

---

The song changes now.
Listen, notes invisible
choir eternal

---

Brights, earthtones and white
The seasons hottest colours.
Gaia get's it right!
