Aliens on Earth
by Heath Cleaveland
Mind Games
Wearing the clothing for the show
Is like command from on high to know
That to participate with no concern for being late
Is to validate that membership in the club,
The rub, publicizes what you are able to grow
With seeds from your mind field, shielding
All of the deepest, darkest of your truths from the realm
Where the biggest, baddest trip in the world
Is that the grill needs meat, yielding that though
It is neat that there is fun here, funds for
Archery and artistry or the like are the sultry
Background for a night under the lights where the
Right to stay real seems reminiscent of
A wild alien’s plight singing songs of what’s right
In the land where began their trip to this newsstand.
Thusly, pick for yourself a gracious attire, fit
For an ends and means effort to discover the
Tune in a room full of vines, some of which
Vaunt the spectacle is nearly just about to start.
by Aileen McPherson
Musings of the mind slip back and forth through time,
Winding down steep and slippery paths,
Trudging on through muck slime,
Looking towards the mountains flowering before me,
No going backwards where pains and aches live,
Gather your strength, moving forward takes courage, embrace the change,
For the future is NOW and Happiness is REAL.

Sanctified
by Don Grubb
All things created
With such eloquent balance
But when facing the light
Oh what a beautiful countenance
So step outside of yourself
Fulfilling destiny’s role
