Africa - Wheres The Profit?
A poetic comment that just welled up inside my head – why cant we just do something – before many more are dead?

Farewell to Lester Graybill
I never met a man, who could shake my hand, and make my heart feel like a hearth afire.

I never met a man, who could make my dark soul, fill with light, by merely standing with him, in conver...

Recollections
I AM SO GRATEFUL for simpler times.
Stores were closed on Sundays,
TV shows seemed to make more sense,
Family members spent ample time with each other,
And people were valued more than things.
I AM SO GRATEFUL for the good old days.

Whats A Prisoner to Do?
What's a prisoner to do when justice fails
and the innocent is escorted off to jail?
What's a prisoner to do once stigmatized,
caged and abandoned and ostracized?
What's a prisoner to do there’s no one to trust;

Ballade of an Inca King
Ah! Leave the gold, wealth and land

A mountain of gold, or the grave
Awaits the hum...

Fair Andes! Thy arms reach high
Of iron-woven solid stone

I have what so many people in this world
