WINDS OF CHANGE - 11-04-2008 (Ode to President - Elect Barack Obama)
WINDS OF CHANGE - 11-04-2008
W hen Sam Cooke was born...
He was born by a river
A river whose current
was propelled by the winds...
Winds of change...
- Strange how seasons
via no reason
make pretty leaves of high altitude
fall to the earth...
- Funny how
life's stages
rage in growth
and in decline
after birth...
- Crazy how we realize
that if one keeps living
they will be elevated by the better
and reduced by the worse...
- Eerie how
a prospering human body
potentially leads
a promising life

BAD BREAK UPS
Thoughts are consumed
via the
unrest that's
suspended
adjacent a heavy heart
within a congested chest...
Guilt accosts the conscience

You never imagined
that your significant other
would snap your pride and feelings...in two...
But unfortunately the "downs"
of relationships came up
and the "ups"

Are You a Walking Action Item? (IF YOU THINK YOU ARE...PLEASE READ)
Do you find yourself having to update calendars, blackberries, internet accounts, and schedules? What about returning phone calls from a couple of weeks ago? Oh, did you make those travel arrangements to L.A.? Did the facilitator tell you about the change in the agenda? Did you pay your bills? I'm sure you forgot about your brother's 40th birthday celebration? Let me guess, you just remembered that you took more leave then you had saved at work. Don't forget about your deadline in a couple of we… Continue
