14th November, 2015 . . .
 
for Albert Camus
 
War in Europe, again.
How ironic
And how parallel
 
To continental
Historical cycles
This conflict has arisen
 
To Whenever,
To Wherever,
Perpetual war cataclysm.
 
We people are a species
Stuck rocking
On our own rodent wheel,
 
Rolling
Rock of our own
Rolling.

Hielo Fino

Hielo Fino . . .

Thin Ice in Manhattan (January 07, 2015)

Thin Ice in Manhattan
(January 07, 2015)

Hielo Fino = no fishing for a while . . .

Comme Il Vous Plaira

Cold calms it down
Despite the light of live fire.
Brown, white, and blue
Rush red flush in full attire.

This, That, and Thine
Locked on the city of lights.
Your time and mine:
Most necessary of rights.

Postscript: My opinion is my own and includes the belief that I am as a creative writer and professional journalist an individual who cannot condone the brutal slaying of fellow journalists no matter how they may have expressed themselves in media. The events in Paris on January 07, 2015 should serve notice that a global restraint on violent reactions to free expression must be accepted, adopted, and enforced in full. No one or thing, not even in the name of a sacred human conception of God with a capital G. has the right to take another human life. Murder is an immoral, an inhumane, an incorrect act that discredits the dignity of us all.
