The smallest of things
Zooms up close after a while
Whispering “Hello!”

Blast from the Past:

Uncover the core
Of the impossible. See
The world around you.

Seconds before the
Big impact is the wrong time
To ask what the point is

Blast from the Past:

Isolated in our
Hulking towers of gray stone:
Evil in nonbeing

A word to the wise:
Always remember to breathe
Instead of yelling

Blast from the Past:

Out of anger and spite
You shot yourself in the foot.
Forgot the ricochet

12/08/25 A New Aphorism for a New Day

Today I wrote an aphorism instead of a poem:

Instead of asking whether someone is a good person, sometimes the better question to ask is who are they a good person to? Some people are only good to themselves and maybe those closest to them.

Blast from the Past:

Each day, two choices:
Cast out the bad out of yourself,
Or receive the good.
