Buff up
Before
exiting the host;
On the
surface,
They eat
the wounded.

Poem: [Let the blue turtle go]
By Jack Brummet
Let the blue turtle go
Train your eyes
Like a bobcat
2
Leave the knife beneath your cloak
Let things pass
Train your eyes
Like a bobcat
2
Leave the knife beneath your cloak
Let things pass
Because all things must pass
3
Awareness of danger
Brings fortune as you cross
The cold cold sea.

The problems arise when falling
Becomes not falling,
Or,
the uncontrolled landing problem.---o0o---
Poem: Mission Statement
By Jack Brummet
You don't need to see
A discounted cash flow analysis.
You only need to know
If the right people are in your pocket,
And, if not, whom should be bought off,
Scared off, or bumped off?

Poem: Tendrils
By Jack Brummet
When a tree is chopped down
Volunteer shoots sprout
From the roots,
Sending out tendrils of life
In an urgent last gasp
— A genetic S.O.S.—
Like what they say
Happens
When you hang a man.

Poem: Potential
By Jack Brummet
In your chest beats
The heart of a Good Samaritan
Who never quite got off
The starting blocks
