Soul’s Imperil
Embrace the lost
creative gift
Keep it closest
to your heart
Ignore it
at your soul’s imperil
Whose ire tears
— your world apart
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Mistral Wind
First
Last
And Always
— say something
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Symbiosis
Without real freedom
true privacy dies
The right to our secrets
— in liberty lies
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Echoes Surround
You’ve been leaving
since before you arrived
The seeds of denial
you planted inside
To run in the wasteland
where echoes surround
An orphan retreating
— despoiled and bound
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Without The Dark
No saint
without a past
No sinner
without a future
No faith
without a doubt
No light
— without the dark
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
A Verbal Palette
A Poem is but a picture
— painted with words
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Leading Us Onward
Beautiful
chaos
A wonderous
chime
That rings
beyond order
And seeks
to defy
Leading
us onward
Calling
our name
Beyond
what’s endemic
Resplendence
— ordained
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Looking Deeper
Did you ever love
what’s in the box
But hate
the way it’s wrapped
The politics
of modern life
Repels
— what it attracts
(Dreamsleep: March, 2027)

Here are a grouping of several gems. Hard to say the favorite this time Kurt. In Symbiosis there is a very pertinent message for today where there is no liberty or privacy so nicely said the two intertwined. Ecoes surround also in a more individual message of today's society and relationships so well worded. Without the dark is such a lovely depiction of duality. Looking Deeper such a lovely social commentary I would have to say that more likely people love the way it is wrapped but hate what is in the box. That I guess depends on the perspective and whether we are referring to the idea of democracy in the box or the intent of the politicians in the box. A great set Kurt a fave
