Reconstructing

Reconstructing

After wars; there’s a period of reconstruction;
for any kingdom is in constant conflict;
in the gap in-between; peace brings seduction;
and some leaders govern by edict.

What is it that makes one want to be king;
becoming in charge of one and all;
the one who

The Quandary

The Quandary

All of reality is an immense puzzle;
everything; a state of perplexity;
my mind; a state of constant befuddle;
for reality, indeed, is a quandary.

We think we see everything clearly,

The Badge Of Humility

The Badge Of Humility

A smart man, who, when asked, how he was doing;
replied, “Better than I deserve.”

Most thoughts are simply rudimentary;

Shadow Of Self

Shadow Of Self

Shade is caused when something blocks light;
creating the darkness, of a shadow;
that darkness translates to a form of night;
appearing as a shadowy meadow.

Shade is a form of diminished reality;
