Without honor,
without truth,
without charity
or compassion,
all is consumptive
dumbshow.
We have grown fat
on the numbers since
we lost our taste
for words that matter.
Like waiting for a rain
to settle dust
and bring verdancy,
the storms will come
to cleanse this earth
and thunder verily.

I had a Boy Scout and B-Western upbringing where a man’s word was who he was. These are difficult times to observe.
