Air Force

You’ve wondered, no doubt, about the wings,
They’re obviously such stubby things,
They can’t provide the lift we need,
Although they may be good for speed.

Wonder no longer, we can fly,
Down here we dominate the sky,
The main thing, as I demonstrate,
Is that you must first levitate.

With wings spread wide, and posture straight,
And mental focus, levitate!
You’re dubious, I see,
You cannot hope to copy me.

Well, here’s the rule, please pay attention,
There’s something I forgot to mention,
The Force is limited to few,
There is no “try”, but only “do”.

Good morning, FRiends.

I need to make a quick run to the school this morning.
I need to take a couple of things for the carnival tomorrow.

I'll be back shortly.

Hi Amy,

Sorry I missed May Day, but Happy International Tuba Day!

And on a more somber note...

Silver
It is said that silver only purifies
In the most extreme heat of the foundry
The core of the flame
Where even the crucible glows
Too bright for the eyes to even glance upon
The smith waits with patience
While fire and stone do their work
Bringing metal and pot to the brink of catastrophe
Burning and purging away that which pollutes
Until the liquid reflects the face of the laborer

Humanity
One foot in the carnal
One in the spiritual
The folly and envy of angel and animal
Only intense distress can reveal true nature
And the Creator looks into the glowing crucible
Of nature, experience, and time
Bringing spirit and flesh to the brink of mutual ruin
Sins and failures are either purged or magnified
Until the soul reflects the face of the divine
