Stephen Crane's demons

limitless nights
dark demons scampering
no place to hide

In honor of Stephen Crane, his dark soul

April baseball
fans dutifully keep score
of hotdogs and beer

remembering FDR's passing

'Going Home' he played
and his tears flowed freely
Warm Springs, Georgia

Daigensui, a deity of Japan

wage peace each moment
without ever ceasing
until victory

The Sorrow of Milk

she suckled her fears, tears
memories of pain

Homage to "The Sorrow of Milk" (2009) a film that
chronicles the violation of women in Peru's Quechua-speaking
areas by Sendero Luminoso, paramiltaries, state police, and the Peruvian Army
from 1980-1992

soft winds

only soft winds blow
across an Earth in pain
quakes, mudslides, bombings
