Springtime manifests
Facing down Seattle’s rain
Soon the blossoms fade

Fathers, Daughters, and Snapshots of Beauty
A friend and daughter
The gentle kiss upon her head
Witnessing sweetness
A Meditation On Artifical Intelligence
Today I wonder
As I consider AI
And our species’ drives;
Is our long-term legacy
Organic or digital?
Lovers of Violence
We love violence
Romance of the gunslinger
Murderous outlaws
This morning’s meditation
Circumstances speak
As I lay within my bed
Seeing life’s beauty
Dancing Upon The Spring Breeze
Upon the spring breeze
Birds dancing gracefully skyward
The sunlit swallow
Memories UnbiddenÂ
Memories come
Unbidden
Ghosts of my youth
Painful moments
Choices I’ve made
But not understood
There’s wisdom there
Not just misery
Forgive the boy
That I was
And see inside
My heart
Now I understand
My internalized mind
Echoes of fears and failures
This early spring morn
Facelessness: A Haiku
Perhaps they prefer
Victims to remain Faceless
I’m resisting such
Standing against violence
Violence glorified?
I’m seeking the path forward
Away from despair
A Day Of Distractions
This day’s distractions
So now I seek clarity;
Facets of my life
Days like this make me weary. Most of my plans failed to launch. Yet I got stuff done. So, there’s that.
