The Collective Mind

The survival of the herd;

the flock;

the school

is based on a communal need to flee

thus, blind communication is instant

and results in choreography of movement -

one direction away and back

regardless of individual need.




The good of the many supersedes the good of the one...



“The Collective Mind is A Constant Known”


A perfect Hive mission statement of our society's

need to communicate instantly and constantly

so to move in mass over the edge

and into the abyss of oneness.



The good of the one outweighs the good of the many...

"Where Do Soldiers Come From"

"Where Do Soldiers Come From"

Where do soldiers come from -
when they stand alone;

How does freedom breathe -
when it gasps for air;

Why do old gray men sleep -
while young golden boys die;

Does freedom ring -
if the bell is cracked;

What has time given - 
that presence has not already taken?

Streets and Boulevards

The narrow line of houses sits quietly
along the darkened village streets. 

Unassuming white candles flickering
at each empty window
perchance anyone may betray
how winter nights of Aquarius allay
the heat of holiday cheer and partying
while the broad city boulevards wore lights a twinkling
and the home’s hearth burned in forestall
of gifts to be given in bestow
of gold, frankincense and myrrh... 

The stilled souls brace against the wind’s breath
taking close harbor in the arms of death.
