Variations
October 30, 2025
Nature’s systems show varied cycles
Taking time and weather into account
They find individual ways to express
What they have been sent here to say
Planetary Resources
October 29, 2025
As snow melts slushy liquid flows downhill
In channels shifting constantly by erosion
As the water passes plants are nourished
Abundance is at hand, ease is possible
Yet some are left without moisture
Others are wiped out by floods
The resources are not distributed evenly
Without Measure
October 28, 2025
Trading wisdom for action is a shortcut
To the realm of endless busywork
Rationalize your shifting expectations
By seeking a life with no leisure, no joy
And you will find merit does not accumulate
There will be no way to know what was lost
Determined
October 28, 2025
Nature makes progress towards reform
With occasional destructive damage
Inflicted to destroy barriers to transformation
Cycles continue to find clashing cymbals
Sounding the sparks between opposites
Vexatious Challenge
October 25, 2025
Courting disaster from every possible angle
A contentious power structure upheld
By the flimsy process of representation
Hardly fools anyone
The will toward violence is palpable
It requires patience to resist responding
Golden Visions
October 24, 2025
The flash of color symbolizes the living end
The glorious orchestral shades in warm tones
Lead the eye and the spirit to a crescendo
From which we will naturally begin to sink
Contestants
October 23, 2025
The costume ball brings out all sorts
Aspiring to impress in a novel fashion
Drawing attention away from substance
To scrutinize the surface of everything
Proton Dance
October 23, 2025
The forms before our eyes take over our senses
Creative opportunities are forever surfacing
Long enough to be caught for future use
Start the harvest of potential by observation
Falling Leaves
October 20, 2025
To catch a falling leaf on Halloween
Requires stealth and cunning beyond measure
To capture the essence of this seasonal luck
Concentrate fully on your goals and wishes
With visions of success for all your relations
Threshold
October 17, 2025
In foggy conditions no path is clear
The entrance of the newly built future
Stands open but obstructed by flimsy forces
Complete abandon guarantees resistance
