So much has happened in this world of my being. I am grateful for every step I've taken. I have decided to join the peace corps and fight for peace (oxymoron?). I can only hope to grow beyond my dreams, beyond Americana hopes, and beyond politics and borders. There is much to come, much to do, and already much excitement in the air. I will update and upload, for the upside of smiles is over and under the rainbow. much peace.

Down River

Where to my hopes will foam,
And where to the feathers
Call their home,
Just down river.
Some days I find my heart’s
Gravity in a muddy
whirlpool, a spinning nitty-gritty,
Just down river.
Ending at free will
Falls, the landing of manifest destiny,
The beginning of being,
Just down river.
And to nowhere the universe
Flows, the star silt clay floats
With buoyant divine undertows,
Just down river.
