Time
. . . and applied ethics
measure out the daze
while I have amplified
both inner and outer gaze.
A Wish
There is nothing scary about a wish, except that sometimes
it comes true. It’s as though, by sheer will power, we’ve changed
the rules.
The future fraught with what we thought.
Getting our wish, we may have made someone else sad or angry or
count for naught.
Wishes are selfish and dangerous and a lot like hopes.
Hopes are what make us keep going.
Hopes are dreams brought into the
Light of day.
Hopes are games we need to play.
Hopes are humankind’s
Real way to pray.
I wish . . . ?
