Radical Citizenship: December 2014
http://radicalcitizenship.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
An inconceivable view on life, the universe.and maybe everything! Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Random Poetry Drizzle: An Ode To Coffee. Sing, for the day has begun! No, no no no I will not escape. This glorious trap of pillows and blankets. I will be restrained. Til buzzing continues until I find release. And shout, angry at my freedom. Sing for the day is dismal,. Gray and foreboding with promise. Oh, joyous foreboding, go away. Until I hear a drip. A drip. A slosh, a slip. That is all. Not content to ...

Radical Citizenship: January 2015
http://radicalcitizenship.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
An inconceivable view on life, the universe.and maybe everything! Saturday, January 17, 2015. I hate the word spiritual. That's probably the wrong word to say. Rather, I detest with every fiber of my being that degenerate word. It is not an adjective, it is not a noun, or an adverb, and it cannot even begin to describe what it is aspiring to. In fact, the only proper meaning for this word is that it gives a proper definition to those who choose to ascribe themselves to such weakness. Faith is hard. T...

Radical Citizenship: Prayer for the Rhyming Artist
http://radicalcitizenship.blogspot.com/2015/02/prayer-for-rhyming-artist.html
An inconceivable view on life, the universe.and maybe everything! Tuesday, February 24, 2015. Prayer for the Rhyming Artist. Knees bent to the floor,. My thoughts are straying toward the door. And of flight, and fright. If my works will please forevermore. Lord above, if You exist,. Please don't make my best rhymes this. Let me find that greatest Art. Within You, and Your divine Spark. That majestic word of Yours,that Grace. That flings itself to and fro through space. And time, it is an age.

Radical Citizenship: November 2012
http://radicalcitizenship.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
An inconceivable view on life, the universe.and maybe everything! Thursday, November 15, 2012. I’ve held off on this post for over a week. Not because I was too busy celebrating over the major sweeps Democrats made…though I was celebrating. Repeatedly, with no sign of a diminishing enthusiasm. My team won, cleaned up in almost every section of the state, and won the presidential election with room to spare. Fantastic…now go lead. Yes, if only so we can start balancing a budget, get our country back where...

Radical Citizenship: May 2013

An inconceivable view on life, the universe.and maybe everything! Thursday, May 2, 2013. The Sin Of Being Born Elsewhere. I've tried forever to understand illegal immigration policies. Several of the points made have had varying degrees of success convincing me. 1 We need to protect our borders from terrorists. Yes, we do, totally agree with that. But terrorists aren't the same as guys crossing the border to get a job. 3 Illegal immigrants do not belong here! Because they were born in a different country?

Writer's block: hitting your head against a brick wall and expecting silver to gush from the wound.". Creativity: Spinning rainbows out of ashes.". Inspiration: The divine reaching down and smacking you with a gold platter.". All written by me. And all in moments of peak frustration. Where are the words that just sing through your mind? Verbs are the lifeblood of creativity. Act...
