BE THRIFTY, NOT MISERLY
***
This hand is open
— Be thrifty, not miserly —
But this hand is closed
***
NOTE: A thrifty person will spend money for worthwhile things, but a miser will never spend money. Sometimes, our hand should be open, and sometimes our hand should be closed. If our hand is always open, we are spendthrifts; if our hand is always closed, we are misers.

It
took you
way too long
to trust me when
I was already
all wound up in this love.
Your willingness to provide
me with security, comfort,
and peace appeared incredibly late.
Now, all you’re doing is playing catch-up.
Now, all I’m doing – losing interest.
The flame, once bright, shines so much less now.
The feelings of desire have peaked.
Thinking about our future.
Where do we go from here?
Turning away now.
Letting go now.
Goodbye then.
It’s too
late.
Once,
there was laughter and tears
Here
in this now abandoned room
Memories
of a life filled with love
But
now it resembles a tomb
***********************
Worn
down with neglect and broken hearts
Like
the paint peeling off the walls
Emptiness
fills the voids within
Just
as it fills these halls
************************
He
made a promise that he would come back
Then
one fateful day came the letter
And
the love of her life was gone in a flash
As
she crumpled inside like a sweater
************************
Little
by little her heart found strength
In
the need of her sweet children’s eyes
Alas,
she moved on from the bitterest song
And
let go – with farewells and goodbyes
“Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.”
It took him such a long time to come back home, the home he grew up in that was teeming with memories of his life before he went away to study, where he lived another life with his family.
He had lost touch with his siblings when his parents passed away and now after a long time the connection was restored by his brother who had come to live in their old home.
He knocked hesitantly and waited ; the door was flung open by his brother with a big beaming smile.

my great great grandchildren
ask me in dreams
what did you do while the planet was plundered?
what did you do when the earth was unraveling?
it’s 3:23 in the morning
and I’m awake
because my great great grandchildren
won’t let me sleep
my great great grandchildren
ask me in dreams
what did you do while the planet was plundered?
what did you do when the earth was unraveling?
surely you did something
when the seasons started failing?
as the mammals, reptiles, birds were all dying?
did you fill the streets with protest
when democracy was stolen?
what did you do
once
you
knew?…

Happy three-lining!
“We don’t have to engage in grand, heroic actions to participate in the process of change. Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people, can quietly become a power no government can suppress, a power than can transform the world.”
— Howard Zinn, “A Power Governments Cannot Suppress”, writer, activist
