We never safeguard our progeny
by overprotecting our kids
The blankets that we spread
and fences we build
Imprison,
rather than defend
Ensuring weaker and hapless offspring
—inside a diminished and helpless world
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2019)
Miami Heat
The sand was hot,
as she came up behind me singing…
“You put the ‘Man’
back in Romance
“And I’ll put the ‘Lay’
back in Lady”
(Miami Beach Florida: May, 1982)
Facing The Fire
"A Man’s true spirit can only be forged and replenished
—in the fire of the unknown"
(Last Line Of Chapter 18 In My Novel ‘Revenge Along The War Trail')

Vita—Et Alia
If all there is…
—is all there is
(then)
All you can do…
—is all you can do
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2019)
Listening to James Ladyman
Into The Light
I stare back from the last horizon,
and scientists look bemused
Theologians prey among themselves,
mystics stay confused
Once through the light Divining
no beginnings or their ends
All truth transcending within itself
—as time and space descend
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2019)

Thanks Man!
Kurt,
Super poems...
each and every one of them!
I will begin with my favorite...
• “Facing The Fire”
It is my favorite because of my admiration and love for one of my favorite characters in your novel...CUTTY!
He is a warrior; and warriors need to be at war!
‘He was once again at peace...
A Peace Only Proffered In Times Of War’!
• “Rotor Blades That Kill”
I totally agree with the message conveyed in this poem!
‘The blanket that we spread
and fences we build
Imprison,
rather than defend’
...so, so true!
• “Miami Heat”
Well...this one is hot, hot, hot...
It’s on🔥🔥 🔥!
• “Vita—Et Alia”
Et quod vita
• “Into The Light”
An insightful poem
by the one and only...
