another unbroken line

the unbroken line steers thru you unaffected unphased sense of purpose                            denied on purpose                   over and over again: you dream of something meaningful, light not (yet) focused covering you which is to say        uncovering you layer after layer           the sounds like velcro           unclothing disrobing           revealing hey is that you? is that the you you wanted to reveal?                                      or, does that you, catch you, as      much by surprise as the rest of us? douglas brent smith

Tradition?

  The trouble with revolution is breaking things. The problem with ignoring tradition is that you forget what got you here, and what has mattered before. Certainly, we don't need to follow tradition without question. We also don't need to overplay our hand. Nuance is an art. Inspiration is an art. Balance...well, you know...it's an art. -- doug smith

Poem: either / or

we do not always (read: seldom) have choices or                opportunities to call chances for how                the outcome arrives alive in expectations we       genuflect gyrations to promises unkept and either swept or      wept away you swept me off my feed all      enthusiastic and smiling (a smile that      feels endless) ending spending our hearts ration of       rational being beating so out of tempo either          two hundred beats per minute or paused to a stop          --- douglas brent smith
