Scavenge as you must
Pick up the shattered pieces
Your heart’s on the mend
Yes, it will remain fragile
But love’s glue will slowly heal

Money is power
Survival of the fittest
And we aren’t worthy

Flowers erupt from ancient granite
Butterflies float effortlessly as if on a cloud
Hummingbirds drink of sweet sweet nectar
Caring not if of hand or nature’s bloom
How odd in this hellish landscape
The thriving and blossoming of such beauty
Living harmonious amongst rattler and scorpion
Such contradictions, these unlikely bedfellows
Each with their own Divine purpose
Who are we to question this perfection
Perhaps this is the model for man to live by
A lesson that has been before us for eternity
But we were too blind or too arrogant to see
.

Passionate courtship
Two songbirds blinded by love
Windowsill tango
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Untold millions suffer
Necrotizing their own souls
Ideas dissolving in mediocrity
Nothing but blood and tears to show
Sometimes one needs to step back
Permitting the mind to recline
Igniting new found passion
Regret not the blankness of pages
Endure their profound emptiness
Divine inspiration is on its way
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Perfection in pain
Part of this life of learning
Unavoidable
