European Tai Chi

European Tai Chi
Gesture like a movie
A classical instructor
Music conductor

Learn the score
But even more
Gesticulate
And appropriate

The direction
And conduction
Of podium style
While all the while

You are
Reducing so far
Life’s exits
In multiple twists

Awareness
Careless
Of aging
While conducting


Teaching, not Listening

There are
Hearing aids
We share
With who saids

Thinking
Needs an inventor
Instructing
An instigator

Is that
A teacher
Oh what
A stretcher

Of lies
And truths
Which he ties
Like mental forsooths

Then grades
Every student
But parades
Only the prudent

So
What you hear
Please know
Is not of fear

For learning
Is ephemeral
A temporal yearning
For the eternal










AI Hearing

Hearing is dull
I am a captain
Searching the hull
To contain
All sounds
In my ears
Resounds
But I need
More resolve
I plead
Deafness to dissolve

Hearing aids
Proliferate
Sonicity fades
Silences dictate
Weblike cures
The need to restate
Deafness demures
But a hearing aid
Must with AI
Be made
To hear Creator’s sky







Oh Deer

Ralph Vaughan Williams - Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis

Give it 400
Years
And it appears
In the ears of deers

The last
Glaciation
Pushes the past
Into our realization

A future
Ripped large
With no suture
None in charge

But the deer
Continue
Without fear
What’s now new

He Spoke Music

He spoke music
Most people
Understand
But never speak

Times
He’d speak
With the stars
Then the kings

The skies
Glow
People think
They know

In his music
Lies two
Distinct dialects
Let us show

People align
With a design
But reality
Hears a key

Sound and light
Rush to
The sky
People know not why

Humans
Are animals
Who kneel
Since they feel
