A Leggo World Blocks, that don't fall down. No mistakes made. No elementary physics and trigonometry sensed. No failures permitted. No learning, by failing, permitted. A Leggo world. Erector sets, with nuts and screws? Too advanced. Pseudo-science and engineering, anyway. A Leggo world. We get, what we give our children. It just takes time. About sixteen years. . . Until another presidential election, and, another round of protective tariffs. * * * jrm 24 Aug. 2018 |

Will This Come True? Global warming Environmental resources disappearing And then -- a correction. Plague. Its end -- after the human population was reduced to one-fourth of its present size. Will this come true? Your guess is as good as mine. I'm eighty-two. Good Luck. * * * jrm 29 Aug. 2018 |

Fall Symphonies Purposeful evening cadences -- sadly, by the last generation of this years' crickets. Their offspring, after hatching, will see next year's Spring. But, they, the adults, won't. Are they telling me something? Are they oblivious to their entrusted fate? Probably. Am I? Is anyone? And, so, I play on. . . As do we all. * * * jrm 6 Sept. 2018 |

Having read David Quammen's book, "The Tangled Tree", I was, at first, inclined to accept the view of an individual as a genetic "mosaic". Further thought had me wondering if the concept of individuality is actually, more secure. Perhaps, it's how we define "individuality". Your thoughts are as good as mine, certainly, if not better. Enjoy his book, and come to your own conclusion! * "We Are, Still, Individuals" Mosaics, we are, yet, each one, unique. Horizontal Gene Transfer -- yields complexity's peak. Individuality secure, no two are the same. Bacteria and viruses, all barriers, , they gain. Species defined, on Darwin's old tree, as waterfall's elements imply uniformity. Yet, all of us change, like the city of Lynn -- We do not come out, the way we go in. * * * j. r. martin 17 Sept. 2018 |

Die Lösung Zähle nichts. Höre nichts. Deine reine Wissenschaft des denkens, Seht das Feuer, nimmt die Zeit. Die Zeit braucht etwas Zeitgeist fur Die Geiste den brennenden Seelen. Zähle weiter. Höre weiter. Den Wissenschaft des denkens.. Die Lösung in die Hände. Seht das Feuer. Gebt die Zeit. Die Welt geht weiter, Braucht ein neues Zeitgeist Fur die Geiste den brennenden Seelen. Die Zeit zählt, und hört eine neue Wissenschaft. Das reines Idee des denkens, Ein Lösung fur das Feuer, Führt die Zeit nach eine neuen Dimension. Führt die Zeit. Hört die Wissenschaft Des Lösungs. Führt das Feuer, Hört die Geiste Den brennenden Seelen. DJ'18 rOZZ Music Pictures |

So Sayeth Thee The sound of music Sings in my soul As the singer of life, Stopping by for saints In suburbs, seeing The sanities of life. Say the words of superb intelligence, So they can reach simplicities of life. The sandman strives for singularities To remain sober, so sayeth Thee. Sing a song for the sane. See the same as the Sire. Swim in the stream of life. Some time strolls through The secrets of supermen. So sayeth Thee. So sayeth we. Still is the song of life. Sane is the simplicity of life. Small is the existence of men, Who stop at the miracles of saints. So sayeth Thee. So sayeth we. DJ'18 *track 4 on album 11* rOZZ Music Pictures |

It's Raining Did you bring the weather to my doorstep? Oh, did you move the sun to another universe? It is raining all the time. Did you send your message to our dear Lord up above? Oh, did you listen to the silence, sweet silence? It is raining all the time. Did you help the ones in need? Did you listen to your heart? It is raining all the time. Did you put your faith in trust? Did you put your trust in fate? It is raining all the time. Did you love your neighbours? Did you love the cosmic wisdom? It is raining all the time. Did you know the rain will turn to snow? Did you know, oh did you know? It is raining all the time. DJ'18 *track 8 on Good Wonder* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsoNwS4OnDs rOZZ Music Pictures |

Life Is But A Dream We take it into our own hands. We think it with our own heads. We make it possible with our own imagination. Our birthstar shows a stage, life is but, one once told. Life is but a dream! Our hearts have released the horrified anger Of dispair and destruction. We will live our dream like in the land where it never rains, Like in the meadow, where God lets his sheep graze in the peace they love. Life is but a dream! (and God is the one who colors it) Take it into your own hands. Think it with your own heads And our Lord makes everything possible. Distracted by the simplicity of life, The stars shout out Life is but a dream! DJ'18 rOZZ Music Pictures |

A Sign You didn't leave a sign On my doorstep. You didn't leave a sign At my window. You didn't leave a sign Under my roof. You didn't leave a sign Under my chair. You didn't leave a sign In the shining sun. Oh shining sun.. You didn't leave a sign For Louis. You didn't leave a sign In my black book. You didn't leave a sign Under my blanket. You didn't leave a sign In my glass of wine. You didn't leave a sign While I try not to whine! Ooh, you didn't leave a sign.. DJ'18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YitpqRxqnt4 rOZZ Music Pictures |

Warlock Er hörte Stimmen dabei, Kolossen zum braunen Erde, Sehen alles Zehn, Sehen alles zuruck. Die Warlock, Oh die Warlock. Hörte Stimmen dabei. Sie rufen uns zuruck, Sie rufen alles zuruck. Meister des Mordes Seht alles Zehn, Seht alles zuruck. Die Kolossen zum braunen Erde, Sehen alles Zehn, Sehen alles zuruck. Die Warlock, Oh die Warlock, Hörte Stimmen dabei, Er hörte Stimmen dabei. Sie rufen uns zuruck, Sie rufen alles zuruck. DJ'18 https://soundcloud.com/user-689178235/warlock rOZZ Music Pictures |

FYI: Coast Guard Beach is located on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Winter Waves on Coast Guard Beach Breaking, with almost a continuous roar, the waves endlessly assault the defenseless sand. The shore reeds' grip suggests that perhaps another summer will reveal a similar scene. It's participants seem to say -- look at us; we know about life's cycles . . . and adjust, for them. Some of us survive, some thrive, some die. That's life, for us. Should it be any different, for you? * * * jrm 26 Nov 2018 |

The Great Cause Over the edge And going further, Further than the eye could ever see. Except for our good Lord's eye, Who's a superhero in gravity! Over the edge, Going further and further. I'm taking a place on The yellow bus of life. There's the edge of life, It's returning back home, All through space and time. We're cool.. We're taking five.. I put aside hate And bring love in. The great cause is in sight. The great cause is insight. DJ'18 rOZZ Music Pictures |

Just The Way You Are Oh close to you. I'm happy, Close to you. There's only love I feel, I want you to be real, So I can be happy, Just the way you are. Oh so close to you, There's only love I feel. I want you to be real And there's only love I feel, Undistorted wisdom of your love Makes me talk to the dove, Sending my message To my Happy up above. Below I'll remain And there's only love I feel, Because I am real, Just the way you are. DJ'18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5obv_JpQ5M rOZZ Music Pictures |

Sandman (starship 8, section B) My Happy is so far away, Oh where can I find him? My Happy used to stroll at beaches Where his pirate ship would have sailed to. He's still not to be found.. He might be hiding in that grain of sand, Or he might have become sand. And on his way to meeting the sandman, For some advice on the best way to wear a sand costume, He found the poet, writing another note.. Not to me!! The ship horned and the pirate had to go back. He wove at the sandman but the sandman Had returned to sand again. Oi Captain, we must avoid those sandbanks! Hard starboard, sailor! Oi Captain.. *cough* The sandbanks are from the sandman, No worries there my sailor. Carry her on through then, Captain. Oi sailor.. Carry her on through to Happy, Is what we should do, Captain. Oi sailor.. *cough* DJ'18 *track 23 on Good Wonder* rOZZ Music Pictures |
