'editing is the art form of our age"

i will cut and paste around warzones
(all those crippled young,coming home-
i will not focus upon weakness nor limitation
(it is bravery and example are our modes
i have cobbled together a composite identikit
of provisional perfection and how to be it
with parts of cartoon fictions and homily sermons
affirmations and pastiche heroines
each of whom had faults to keep them truly human
If you see yourself in this mirror(that is no accident
i send poems petitions out to those i admire most
Your listening is a pearl in shell that shines in depths
few divers choose to seek or to release
So dive deep to find your inner hidden treasures
We are only what is not found nor bound by measure
All that has happened before is as example
We are what signal we align to-our frequency random
Lock in to brightest examples-hold them close
what adds to each of us is song and chorus
The art of life must make do with WHAT IS
until fantasy is unleashed into forms of WHAT MIGHT BE!
(until Ctrl /C and Ctrl V!...
