#DOJ #Trump #Comey #indictment #Soros So Trump wants George Soros prosecuted? For what we don't know. So how about a Dem administration prosecute Leonard Leo, the Koch Brothers, Peter Thiel and other billionaire donors who brought Trump into power using their ill gotten gains?

#poetry #Truth #seek #photography #moon Seeking Truth Taste sunlight in a cloudless sky, Hear silence in a wakeful mind, See colour in the air you breathe, Seek & ye shall find. Feel the touch of empty space, Smell the moonbeams in the night, See the many in the One, Thus seek & ye shall find.

#poetry #passing All That Arises 1/4 All that arises must arrive, And all that arrives does pass. All that arises needs must arrive. Can the hand stay the wave that arrives at the shore? ‘Twas made in places far beyond our reach. Can the mind turn the cloud blowing in from the North? Continued...

#poetry #remembering Remember Me 1/3 Would you remember me? I hope not! For as a man, my faults were many. And though in Truth I hadn’t any, My sins were legion in this world of dreams. Then how would you remember me? Not as I was, I pray, But as I would be on that fateful day… Continued...
