People There are people with joy and happiness, people with tears and sadness. But also people who do not know how to care, How to love or how to share. People who don't know what they will see after the sun has gone down, Or people who will never know how to see at all. People who will chase their dreams, Or people who will let their dreams be and live on. There are a lot of people in this world, Alive, sick, dead or even unborn. People who will fight for peace, Or people who will fight for love. Even people who will try to change you, To change you and let you be who they want you to be. Everybody is different, One is maybe not as smart as the other, Or not as pretty or lively. The way people differ from each other, Makes them the way they are: unique. DJ 2014 rOZZ Music Pictures |

Sans SETI If Murphy's Law could show, again, that labor's pause could yield sought end -- Then, all should turn their gaze, to sky -- with drink, in hand -- watch space-ships fly. As news is broad-cast o'er the world,, we'll let the first alert, unfurl. As, once was sung, another day -- We SETIzens did it, our way. * jm 18 July 2014 |

"Multiverse Dreamscape" where do we go when we sleep? do we fly away? lose contact with the pillow is there something in dreams? takes us away from this earth leaves us somewhere in the middle are we alone? are there more of us? living somewhere over yonder perhaps we wander in dreams through the universes unknown to us in our wakened state (2014 db michel) PROUD TO BE TFFE! |

Nikki Giovanni Copy and Paste from Wikipedia: Renowned Poet , Distinguished Professor of English at Virginia Tech, author of 27 books, I was born in the congo I walked to the fertile crescent and built the sphinx I designed a pyramid so tough that a star that only glows every one hundred years falls into the center giving divine perfect light I am bad I sat on the throne drinking nectar with allah I got hot and sent an ice age to europe to cool my thirst My oldest daughter is nefertiti the tears from my birth pains created the nile I am a beautiful woman I gazed on the forest and burned out the sahara desert with a packet of goat's meat and a change of clothes I crossed it in two hours I am a gazelle so swift so swift you can't catch me For a birthday present when he was three I gave my son hannibal an elephant He gave me rome for mother's day My strength flows ever on My son noah built new/ark and I stood proudly at the helm as we sailed on a soft summer day I turned myself into myself and was jesus men intone my loving name All praises All praises I am the one who would save I sowed diamonds in my back yard My bowels deliver uranium the filings for my fingernails are semi-precious jewels On a trip north I caught a cold and blew My nose giving oil to the arab world I am so hip even my errors are correct I sailed west to reach east and had to round off the earth as I went The hair from my head thinned and gold was laid across three continents I am so perfect so divine so ethereal so surreal I cannot be comprehended except by my permission I mean...I...can fly like a bird in the sky...
