I have discovered a trend here on Gather. I call it "Gather-ship" (which is basically the Gather version of censorship). While it is the right of group owners of niche groups to moderate the . . . more

thoughts
like pebbles
kept by a child eager
just to collect
anything
thoughts
like rainbows
cannot be caught
like butterflies
for they are
mothlike
ephemeral
thoughts
are more than
words strung together . . . more

I was walking down Broadway
just passing the scene
when the Devil drove my way
in a big limousine
and he said, "Hey, honey
I could sure use a smile
and I've got money
to make it worth your while" . . . more

Right now it seemed so long ago, but I remember well
We all became a family to stop nuclear hell.
It started off in Griffith Park with songs by Holly Near.
On March the first, we took our steps; we said . . . more

when you died
Thomas
it was so sudden
there was no time for tears
the unreality of it all pollutes me
I am suddenly alone
hundreds of miles away
I travel
just to be with you one last time
I would not . . . more

the oxpecker
lives for the rhino
and the rhino benefits
they cannot live apart
for fear of mutual exrinction
so they co-exist
as one
the white tiger
strolls for prey
yet does not see the poacher
as the . . . more

I've often imagined
that life was more than just my skin
my soul that dwells
my mind that dreams
my heart that loves
combined are more than the sum of their parts
just what is heaven
is it something . . . more

Kindness is not a dividend
and you are not my friend
I don't know why you pretend
cause you are not my friend
you push on me the hatred that has seethed
because you never got the love . . . more

I was pretty much a baby when the Beatles first arrived on the music scene, since I was born on the tail end of the Baby Boomer comet. In fact, I only got into their music when Let it Be was released. . . . more

my noisy voice would clang
with every word I sang
in worshipful praise to God above
were it not for love
mere hope would be in vain
my peace could not retain
the purity of Heaven's . . . more

I learned of this story from The Independent (UK) through a bulletin board I sometimes visit. I will share a bit with you (fair use) as well as the link to the whole article (which I've done above). . . . more

apart and alone
too far from my home
I would hope for just a spark
from you here in the dark
it feels as if you're near
your voice comes through so clear
as if our minds could speak

Goodbye America
I'll miss you now you're gone
They took away our freedom
Where did we go wrong
I pledged allegiance to your flag
Now it's a desecrated rag
It stands for nothing that I love . . . more

watching television till we sleep
there is no excitement in our lives
so we watch other people live
we are devoid of ecstacy or joie de vivre
therefore we cease to . . . more
