Activities of Scott J. Shepard

Morrow overcast
A traffic stop,
The conference call
FM broadcast erupts
...

No matter how many
cars you have
you can wear only
a pair of shoes
...

Like the grass
That has no ego, grows everywhere
Finding space is at ease
When the mind is at peace with self and others
...

I walked for a thousand kilometers
Ran away from wild animals
I crossed the Limpopo River at night
By the grace of God, the crocodiles didn't devour me
...

When humankind accepts love not hate. To renounce every evil in all its forms. We as a species will be gone from the earth after having destroyed all life with nuclear weapons. Only when we reject war, greed and feed the world's poor people and listen to the earth as she is being destroyed by climate change then we might avoid our extinction.
...

There's this frame of mind I'm in

Sloshed like the skating rink
...

I must be out of my head
I burry it in a bag in my living room
So it becomes my pressure suit
like I'm a deep sea diver, exploring the depths of;
...

The surface lay calm and conditioned.
Clear as crystal, despite its lattice shape.
Once a child's mind,
before what waves of uncertainty
...

They held their hands high
To a low-lit electronic circuit
Night casts over them, yet it was young
Concern didn't stay through the dusk.
