Heap praise in public
And reprimand in private:
Preserve dignity!

Highly paid men stand
Around a table to play
Abstruse language games.

Eyes, paws raised up high,
A prayer for Benevolence:
Bastet cast in bronze.
#826 On Watering the Forest
Thin beads of Sweat fall
Unto the parched forest floor
Trees cry out for Rain.

Sunlight peers through leaves;
The glow of Life suffuses
Through my aching Heart.
#818 On Pain in Separation
Nigh inseparable
We were; now far, far apart
Your absence is Pain.
#794 On Friendships and Sweet Sweet Time
Friendships are nourished
With thoughtful words and kindness
And Time - sweet, sweet Time.
#793 On Speaking Out Against Overbuilding
In the hot morn sun
The great gave some good speeches
against their good friends.
#784 On The Dense Crown
I bear this dense crown
Jagged whispers drown the morn
We mourn our dread days.
#781 On The Drowning at Sunset
Behind those green hills
The sun is drowned by clouds;
Sunset calls her home.
