Dreams and Cosmic Flows

A flutter of eyelids, ah, a quick path to sleep. How long until, if at all, to dreams and cosmic flows? (Does one have the soul of an artist?)

The Peace of Be-ing - The Beauty of Be-ing

What a life life is when you are simply be-ing. It's lovely to just "be." Slowing down to allow life to catch up with us is tremendously gratifying. You too can have it. It may last a few minutes... an hour, a day perhaps. Once you've had it, you want more... insatiable peace and wellbeing.

Two Poems - For A Sunday Afternoon

When I was a young man, I was likened to terrified fish, an alcoholic that is what I was back then, not how I wanted to be. It is forty-years now. I know now I was better off with no father, thus, I had to row my way to where I am today, through a generation of vipers.

Art Fantasy Woman is Every Goddess in Woman

Late at night I heard her laughing, a chatter coming through my bedroom wall. I heard dear Lily step into the forest, past my contentions, saying no, not without following a plan. Pay attention Lily! This world is actually quite small. No rules can be broken, no path to discover. Put your heart there on the mantle and walk only as you are told. Lily dear Lily, fantasy art woman, how bold and free, how luxurious are your pleasures. How amazing you stepped past these pitiful objections.

Somewhere in Time

Thoughts on life and if we have lived before. Remembering how to live is just as important as living in the moment. Life has a way of reminding us we have lessons to learn and that we have learned lessons.

Mrs O'Day's Dinning Room (A Poem On Mental Disturbances) & "Days of Tears & Tarnish"

It is a sad case in so many folks who have to deal with mental disorders. But in America anyhow, there are places to go, and medication to take helping one to make it through a life somewhat normal. Alas, for the third world, where I spend much of my time, and have visited asylums, and do not have all these leverages.

The Poet Laureate Position Has a Long and Rich Tradition

The poet laureate position has a long and rich history, dating all the way back to Geoffrey Chaucer. The British Empire has had many poets laureate through the years and the U.S. has had a poet consultancy position since the early twentieth century. Other countries appoint poets to serve as a poet laureate as well.

The Go-Cart (A Minnesota Poem, 1959)

No: 2387 (5-23-2008) Note: back in 1959, in St. Paul, Minnesota, Mike E. Siluk (my brother), had a go-cart, he was the talk of the neighborhood for that season, and perhaps well deserved. He had everyone in envy, but he worked hard to acquire the only co-cart (with his paper route money), this side of the Mississippi I bet. And Old Rice School, which was just up an old dirt alley from our home, was a great place to have a go-around runway for the go-cart. It seems nowadays, go-carts are...
