The Depths Of Being

The Depths Of Being

We’re able to measure the depths of the sea;
and, to some extent, the height of the sky;
what about measurements of that which is me;
and the answers to every “Why?”

Can we research the true depths of being;
forget about the height of

The Battle For Recognition

The Battle For Recognition

Why has life become a fight for attention;
a struggle to become recognized?
The world, itself, is awash in contention;
its losers; often despised.

All of us are challenged to be the very best;
head and shoulders above all others;
we feel as tho life is

Performance Of A Lifetime

Performance Of A Lifetime

My life seems transformed into a mist;
