Who are the winners? The losers? Who can say? Pick yourself up Get back on track Have yourself a nice day We are in a battle Almost for survival Forget about etiquette You’re here to stay Find your position Nobody else will care You are on your own No time for despair Been here before In the thick of things Looking for truth Nothing seems to ring There is the slang The talking around Just these one liners Bring on the clowns Feel like meat Going for process Assured it’s the best thing Take on alarm Listen to no one Let instinct prevail You know what is right It comes in one color Some try to shade it Others declare There is room for shifting Try not to stare Disbelief can be uplifting Take your position Hold it up high Others are looking Victory is the cry Arduous effort No longer fun Don’t let up We have almost won Stanski October 15, 2021 ^

WONDERMENT IN THE MIDST OF BEAUTY
Looking out the window I see the sunshine reflecting off The long grass on the dunes Lake water was like liquid silver Beauty, I thought as I looked back to the dune My heart jumped and reality returned Somewhere in the dune were The ashes of my bride and youngest son What is this thing called life A merry-go-round of emotions The angels were lonely and stopped by Leaving me lonely and in wonder Stanski October 27, 2019 ^
