Changed
ymmiJ Mar 2021
all time passed changes
as people never stop
I've already changed
and there's nothing
I can change about it
as change only occurs
once time has passed

Isolation Island
ymmiJ May 31
I wander in hopelessness
this barren sea of humanity
my hope fades to pity
in a world of uncommon ground
stuck on an island called isolation
resigned to watching fruit grow
on a lone mango tree
waiting for a perfect tide
to catch a simple meal
oysters clams muscles
and if I am lucky
a succulant spiny lobster
a cold glass of fresh squeezed lemonade
as I watch the sun descend
on this lost society

Sudan the latest to come to the peace table. Rumors swirling Iran wants to work with Israel and our President. Peace in the Middle East could be a reality. Humanity should rejoice, and praise GOD!
