“Art is the only
serious thing
in the world.
And the artist is
the only person who
is never serious.”

forever jealous
never content with his own
wanted others things

Poem:
.
disorder is the work of an evil spirit
ugly has no bounds or limit
souls that believe they have something to prove
statues and memorials they want to remove
destroying a government is anarchy
believing there is no need for a moral code, insanity
yet the majority are afraid of the minority
defund the police, let’s give evil the authority
the press divides when they take sides
a few wealthy trying to push the tides
there is no need to apologize
peace allows everyone to share the prize
let’s use that energy to make an improvement
let the teaching of history define our movement
let God be the definition of pure order
maybe tomorrow, within our border

“Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sand of time;
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o’er life’s solenm main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us then be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.”
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

plod
walk wearily
keep on going
through thick and thin
trudge

Lune: 5 / 3 / 5

rain, rain go away
come again
as you surely will

Poem:
.
spirituality is a God that glows
religion is crowd control
love is a heart that shows
hate is to blacken one’s soul
kindness is thinking of others
meanness is born of selfishness
happiness is celebrating mothers
anger is the birthplace of nemesis
good or evil is a choice
life is best lived in balance
do the next right thing and rejoice
when in doubt, always chose silence
