Two Thoughts For 10-18-2018
Fortune Untold
Beyond the critics reach
beyond the assassin’s grasp
A rainbow exists—with fortune untold
refracting present, future, and past
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2014)
Time Dissolved
Wringing the joy out of every moment,
catching those drops that fall
Time becomes septic draining into itself
—the past and future dissolved
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2104)
