My Land
I was told this was home
I was given it on silver plater
They fail to tell me that I would have to steal itWords written on paper was crafted beautifully
Penmanship to die for
That was it…
The hidden messageTo die for
I can not take what is not mine

April Fools is practically every day for me. There’s no April 2nds in my life. Awesome piece my friend!!

Brilliantly penned, PAR. Excellent write that’s an amazing sequel to “April 1st” my friend. Both writes stand on their own respectively but reading them back to back is chef’s kiss brother.

smelling faintly of banana peel bravado

A RED INVITATION
I love the way it feels
When no one sees
These miserable hills
A dark sky… hidden in black seasCan you see where I am? (Where I am?)
This place understands….
It knows my story… how it began…

Falling…. Is a Red In-vi-tation….PRE-CHORUS:
It’s falling….. Like a feather…Read More -

When Introverts ruled the World
- June 29, 2025


In Indigenous culture and belief, no one owns the land, we inherit it and are part of it and must share and protect it, leaving it in better shape for future generations. I think this is a much better culture, belief, and morality than what we have in today’s world. I like your poem because it points to this kind of understanding. A very fitting…Read More
