nothing left, only passing through

 It’s an odd geometry 

Sin took away Jesus

And Spirit moves through sin

when the winds come round

America showed Nagasaki

no mercy, no love

How quaint to think

America could receive either --

look at our fallout

no such thing

Simple words.

Simply true.

 "There's no such thing as dying of old age. Something kills us all." (Grandfather to grandson, S2 E6 "Blood and the Boy," Yellowstone)

Simply words.

A simple truth.

meow, mu-ow

 Cat knows nothing of Buddha

Still, sits on window altar

Looking beyond representation

unearth good

 Terrorism prevails

As long as stupidity believes

Evil is eradicated by killing people.

If anyone is able to overcome

An evil impulse, then there is hope

Good will be unearthed and life honored

The battle isn’t good versus evil —

The war is asking are we willing to let earth

Reveal its deepest source of life, regenerative love

that evening walk at rockport harbor

 I remember

When it was

My birthday

And then over —

Such a calm

And fleeting time
