Goes On

Contemplating ambition…

   Goes On

In the end alone
Despite the battle goes on
In the game of thrones

   -gl-

Contemplating consequences…

Please share your thoughts…

Those That Are

Contemplating the right stuff…

   Those That Are

What is a coward?
When those that are flinch away
Good men step forward

   -gl-

Contemplating running toward…

(Men is generic – Plenty of women do the same)

Onto the Street

Contemplating tension…

   Onto the Street

The orders come down
And it’s out onto the street
Mixed with smiles and frowns

Each handles the stress
For some a lark. For others
Each op is a test

Depending on style
The fears and tension handled
Underneath the smiles

Contemplating the danger…

He Suits Up

Contemplating a comeback…

   He Suits Up

A long time hero
Back from an ancient history
Forgotten he knows

Maybe best that way?
But duty calls. He suits up
Cap’s into the fray

   -gl-

Contemplating, “How fun is that?”

Please share…

In the Shadows

Contemplating darkness and redemption…


   In the Shadows

Battling for right
In the shadows seeing far
Despite one eyed sight

Plans, commands, hurry
S.H.I.E.L.D.’s boss still carries the fight
He is Nick Fury

   -gl-


The saga continues. Contemplating duty, and the fun of fiction…

Please share…


Assemble

Contemplating flights of fancy…

   Assemble

Will be all right
When Avengers assemble
Cause it’s might for right

At least survival
When Earth’s mortal foes arise
They will assemble

Contemplating old favorites…

Finally saw the movie…

Forever a Monument

Contemplating destiny and achievement…

   Forever a Monument

He walked on the moon
With one small step for a man
He began
What would soon

Prove to be man’s greatest leap
For decades beyond comprehension to come
For we haven’t gone anywhere else since that moment

But he was there then and forever a monument
To what can be done
When we leap

His effort a boon
To the legacy of man
For with his small step he began
A course that leads to beyond this planet’s doom

In honor of Neil Armstrong…

Today Runs

Contemplating courage and honor…

   Today Runs

It’s Kirani James
That today runs the fastest
Wears another’s name

   -gl-

Contemplating graciousness…

In honor of Kirani James honoring Oscar Pistorius…

The Killing Shot

Courage, sacrifice, and getting the job done…

   The Killing Shot

He shoved the bad guy
Deflecting the killing shot
Job done. As he died…

A tribute to a best friend I never met…

Heroism should be celebrated. Pass it on…

The Way You Act

Contemplating fear and courage…

   The Way You Act

When panic is near
Courage is the way you act
NOT, feeling no fear
