Little Judges
Appointed from on high, a million little judges
Against whom you will never find a defense
Self-appointed, excused, generic free-for-all
I once was lost in the pages of his war manual
Now I see why his suicide is at your very core
Maybe if my name were changed to Paul
Perhaps some bright lights to cushion the fall
It may ignite my speech though preferring the kill
A new name, if ever a personality were changed
But your jury is easily selected, hordes of the like
Singing praises to air, inciting none bu...

Desire
Delicate in its confusion, a split-heart’s conclusion
Believe this, no trinity is made of two
No daydream desire will ever pull me in
Your words to keep, if even from your one love
Was it not enough to stand next to the flame?
Must my hands be burned while I sit in shame?
This devil crossroad lurks in every season
Desire is a clever noose, but not ’round my neck
Wear your handiwork proud, I won’t cut in again
This high road is a precipice sliding underfoot
Falling rocks down below, same drill as ever
De...

Twitter Poet
To find depth in words like wet
Swept from the feet, a love song
A place where haiku barely fit
Flirt like sundown, but short
A den of lonely lust indeed
Possible to meet your need
Maybe even find the one
Though odds are in millions
Absurdly out of all favor
One forty gone in a flash
Hope she gets your game
Say soul mate again, man
One day is certain to come
When your tweet will sing
Song of a copy/paste lover
Emoticons hover,

Breathless
If not for the energy I found here, I might fly
For every piece I am given fits in perfectly
A handful of grief in exchange for grace
But I’ve lost the way, my voice a whisper
If only I were a deep well of substance
I would give it all every day and more
You are reading a man who craves quiet
So I step as though to draw back inside
The light may shine as it wills for now
There is a place I must inhabit until
Until streams thaw, if it comes quick
I am breathless within this bitter war
Every word has becom...

Negative Space
take me inside out
my will has been overcome
your exquisite space

To Reach ~ A Duet With The Migraine Chronicles
I am still standing where you left me
Sun set on my face, settling in with the fog
Reminded I am alive by the ice-flecked air
Lonely for your warmth to reach into my night
I see you standing there in front of me
Your face, blurred, sullen and blank
Are you living to die or dying to live
I want to reach to you, but I am afraid
I know you must see me through the fear
Clasp your hands in mine to be a guide
Close your eyes, blind to the outside
My life may depend upon your own
Close my eyes, push away the li...
Music Theme – Only Time
Lisa picked our theme for this week. I pretty much covered ‘time’ last week, so I decided to present the one thing that we all should spend time on, love. I also chose from the 80’s.
And for Margot…
Be sure to spend some time loving someone this week, even if it’s yourself. Also, check out the other themers…

What Is Anarchadia?
1. What is Anarchadia, and where can it be found?
Anarchadia is a non-profit which originally started as just unspinning mainstream misinformation (tailored by well paid spin doctors working for government and corporate interests, not the general public’s), and was started originally just as a blog in Lyon, France, the birthplace of anarchist revolutions since Mikhail Bakunin. But since the censorship started affecting us heavily in 2011, we’ve had to adapt to the times, and become an undergro...

Anarchadia France – The Peace Revolution
Anarchadia France is a branch of Anarchadia.com, and is part of a global network of anarchists working toward peaceful solutions to some of the worst problems facing all societies today. We all have our own brand of communicating this message, whether it be through exposing the lies that are frequently spun into mainstream, corporate media and the powers they serve, or by simply pointing out and teaching alternatives to capitalism, fascism and dismantling the idea that things are fine the way...
