Philosophy and Psychology

Optimism

vain efforts and death
the sum total of my life -
mystery remains
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Madness

great truths are whispers,
are slippery to the touch;
their power unseen
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

koan

no time is no time
everywhere is not this -
reality knot

War and Peace

To my enemy:
Look to your humanity;
I am your brother.

                9/28/1999

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

memo

spirit to the flame
droplet to the sea again
you alone remain

Silent Heros

Loud glory is cheap
Great warriors need silence,
the beast is within

               1/23/2k

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Awareness

on the long road home,
remember the gatekeeper's
dire expectation

          2/13/2k, rev. 9/30/2k
