Hello AMERICA!!!!!! and brothers and sisters abroad...its been a minute since I have updated this outpost in cyber space, so today I'd like to offer a gift from the heart. The first is a written tiding of happiness and hope from the heart, the second is a visual one I have created myself, with help from some allies in the art world.
this is my imitation of what it would look like had I ever had an opportunity to visit the Giant Buddha Statue in Kamakura, Japan. One destination among many that I would love to see before my time on this planet is up (so I guess it's on my bucket list). But to be honest it's more of a reflection of an inner 'little guy' I think we all have within.
A Prayer Amid Mediation
(An Ode to the American Working Class)
These are my thoughts these are my wishes
Is to bring my dreams to fruition
With no real help or push from the Divine
Just that all my hard work and effort
Come to a final culmination
All my dreams and hope for this lost nation
That you lift my brothers and sisters
From this dire situation
Clear away all distractions
And miserly fantasies from their hearts
Heal them of the amnesia that
Makes them forget
The heaven centered destination
From which we departed
Release the gifts we all harbor inside
A fair job for my enemies and friends is all I desire
