Veuve Clicquot Vintage Rosé Brut ~ Monday, November 24, 2025

It is a ridiculous opinion
to believe we are inherently good

inherently bad, or otherwise know
such a difference that only a minion

an eternal creature would know since birth

ridiculous to imagine that wood
inherently as trees know how to grow
demons being unreal, an afterthought
internal arguments to dig the earth
cumulonimbus float by in my mind
until all thoughts disappear, the skies clear
left to my own devices, I am blind
only a metaphor, observe the tear
until no one cares, and so, I am caught
suffering while the others celebrate

on New Year's Eve with a glass of champagne
perhaps a vintage rosé, perhaps not
in fact, sparkling wine to inebriate
noxious ideas of goodness or evil
inebriated demons, yet again
obviously, Descartes blows smoke and snot
naughty and malicious as the devil

What Is It Worth, a Dog's Life: A Triptych ~ Friday, November 7, 2025

These brown eyes observe changes at times strange honestly, inside this head, distractions empty bowls, food and water, eat and drink simple needs, as I wait inside the grange eager to please, to be fed, and to sleep barking, I like to bark, their reactions result in the dog house, left here to think only, I cannot think, cannot look back will they ever learn, must not make a peep never will I not bark at the squirrel except this behavior does me no good yes, I cannot think, I will not quarrel except I bark and growl and snarl, no food save a field mouse or a stray cat, attack --- observe the world from the head of a dog brown eyes, expressive as an ape, old soul silence is golden but my dog has mange empty bowls teach him a lesson, the bog remains to resolve all issues in life versions of the truth, what is the prime goal emptiness is loving-kindness, how strange challenged people cannot see their own mind how the teachings walk the edge of a knife answer all th...

Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge ~ Friday, May 30, 2025

Professor Miłosz answered my question reserved with but one word, 'Daimonion' obligations to respond to students forgave him for reflux indigestion ever more witty than a Cheshire cat such a response like peeling an onion strange to hear what inspires a profound sense of history and philosophy, deep rivers flow to offer one time at bat Moments come and evaporate, to seize in my youth the mystery of being łodzianin , The Promised Land , a breeze of less than fresh air blows mortals fleeing socialism into the deepest sleep ziemia obiecana , what does this mean answers in his History unfold time nothing escapes Polish Literature save for the Catastrophe , the unseen wisdom, impossible to grasp, then guides experience through right and wrong, as crime removes the stain of corruption, unsure existentialists adopt Marxism despite the deep divide taking both sides music to post-Stalinist ears, the Thaw yet, thirty-five years later, with the Fall questions of ...

Poor Axle Hole ~ Monday, June 30, 2025

Allegedly, we are all, already lighter than air, in the atmosphere, float lifted on buoyant bubbles of root beer enlightenment a dream, are you ready get out your magic carpet for a ride ending the reign of saṃsāra , the boat decides all fate, all connections, no fear life goes on for billions of years, the sun yes, will become a red giant, such pride wet behind the ears, no tears, we were cool every summer at the beach, on our bikes all day long, no worries, play pocket pool ride our beach cruisers back home, no one likes empty pockets, no cash, no change, no fun are you ready for mokṣa , for release leave it all behind, nirvāṇa , let go let Baruch HaShem , blessed be the name answer all the questions, for I seek peace liberation, salvation, suffering ripens into soft pears, this much I know everyday, a blessing, I feel no shame alive and well, a miracle, I bring desire to an end, if I borrow your ears to hear, duḥkha ends with sorrow
