Imagine (258/365)

May the sun set on the wrongs of yesterday
May they scurry off to another corner of the planet while you sleep
And bite someone else's leg
May you know peace
And may all who live in the shadow of love
Step boldly into the light and drop the weapons of wicked words
Shed the armor of fear
And pick up shuttle
You can weave real, lasting peace into the fabric of your life
With every breath
Every thought
Every action
It all begins with you
Why waste another minute?

Love of Life (254/365)

Life is worth living when love is in it
Love is balance, peace, and kindness
Loving makes me a tolerable creature
Love is warmth on a windy day
Love is a light heart
Free from mind's chains
Love is a gift more valued than gold
Love is your future
Love lets go
Loving is giving – all are deserving
Open the gates you locked long ago
Love is a highway
A two lane road
May your soul come to rest in love's quiet coves

Love & Games (253/365)

Oh baby, yeah, baby
Tell me what I want to hear
You're an itch
I have to scratch
Come on over here
'Cause the blood reveals the pain
Of the war against my womb
They say it's better off a tomb
Until I reach my thirties dear
But abstinence won't keep a man
For ten years while you plan
Marry young and make the babies
Or sleep around then tie one down
Just in time to buy the diapers
What's a modern girl to do?
Keep her sanity or chastity
Go to work and go to school
What are the rules in this new era?
Born in chaos either way
Good enough's not good enough
When there's time enough to play

Nonsense (250/365)

He's strumming a guitar
Sitting at a desk
Piled high with papers
The marshmallow man
Walks through the chain-link fence
Skin patterned blue
Plaid and paisley stripes
Creeping up the arms
Like a sky infection
Twice
I got a long way to go
To get back to where I was
I'm in love with my bed
Tomorrow I rise
