Concerto for blunt instrument

An irregular heartbeat from d.o. to you. Not like a daily kos, more like a sometime sloth. Fast relief from the symptoms of blogarrhea and predicated on the understanding that the world is not a stage for our actions, rather it is a living organism upon which we depend for our existence.

The Oaks














Remember these trees
and our verities
wielders of power
recall this hour
and those who stood
this ground a century
actions of consequence
moments of reprehence
when they fell out of time
because of this crime
this great oak stand
this bleeding land
shall not be forgotten
winter is still followed by spring.
