War Fears (Article) - 4/18/2018 4:39:54 AM
Some of us have traded on fear for a long time. Fortunes are made from the shapeless 'rumors of war' ... and yet when you see real fear in the eyes of your neighbor realize that perhaps it is only the reflection of what he/she sees in yours.
Courage, friends.
A Question to Humanity (Article) - 8/19/2016 9:50:49 AM
Powerful, thought provoking questions, Bruce. Hopefully, in the near
future, many will begin to think about these questions in the hopes of finding some answers to them.In the meanwhile, please keep pricking our consciences with them.
To your continued success-

War Fears (Article) - 3/22/2003 5:35:05 AM
Yes, I agree, very scary world we live in...I also have children; so I know what you are speaking of...
War Fears (Article) - 3/21/2003 9:26:28 PM
the "sit back and wait" attitude is what has brought the world to the brink of destruction. I, personally, prefer to be pro-active. (Not that it has helped - but at least I know that I have done what I could. My conscience is clear, but yet I bear the shame of my government's assault and the repercussions that will plague my grandchildren, and those of so many nations.)

Well written article by Bruce A Humphrey. Thanx for addicting us to the world of awareness and knowledge.
War (Poetry) - 12/29/2025 6:07:11 AM
You've shared a poetic piece that belies denial and apathy. The vivid images the lines provoke contribut to the heart felt sadness you obviously experience regarding war. I, for one, think we can't write and speak enough about the subject, and I, too, have written many stanzas bringing attention to the senseless greed and power mongering that seems to provide the underpinning of the monster of destruction. After experiencing a well written war poem I'm always left figuratively scritching my head in wondering if AI might be helpful in minimizing wars. Of course, one has to also be fearful that the use of AI might do just the opposite. Back to your poem, keep writing. We need your clarity of choice of premise, style and vocabulary for more rewarding reading.
War (Poetry) - 12/17/2025 2:02:32 PM
You remind me that I hope I never have to see war, close up in my lifetime.

Iron Paper (Poetry) - 11/24/2025 8:13:38 AM
It could be said that we are a species void for the most part of your "pinpoint of light." Of late, one can't help but wonder how such a huge part of our world is with much of the encrustacious fear and loathing that your "pinpoint of light" has been available ad naseum, but few open their sesorial ability wide enough to allow it's presence. Sad, that. But, until such welcoming is realized and used globally, there might remain but to a few your modest pinpoint of light . Thank you for sharing the thoughts that many of us see, feel, and act upon. A few of us.
Iron Paper (Poetry) - 11/12/2025 11:53:41 PM
Right on the money, I still use notebooks and pens, can be difficult deciphering it at times.
Yet this is seen through a silent and meditative mind.
In such silence we hear the unsaid and see the unseen.
Brilliant write.
Iron Paper (Poetry) - 11/11/2025 9:38:13 AM
Interesting use of iron in relationship to thoughts and words on paper.
Interesting to me because of the way technology has changed the way we put thoughts to paper.
Pencil to paper is nearly gone. Pen to paper is nearly gone. Typing onto paper is nearly gone. Typing to the electronic page is declining. Texting abbreviations is increasing. Our voice will probably be our only means of communication until we communicate mind to mind… coming soon through AI before we know it.

Want or Will (Poetry) - 7/17/2024 5:42:17 AM
So many questions that are so hard to answer,my favourite line in your very interesting poem is ;"How do people use their hearts to help someone off the ground?' I really like this line and I dare to attempt an answer, I would guess that empathy is the trigger that makes one's heart reach out to help another up🕊
Want or Will (Poetry) - 7/16/2024 11:22:36 AM
A lot of questions. Some answered, some not.
My experience in living in many places is that people are inherently good and helpful. But animosities arrive from lack of knowledge and fear of the unknown leading to all kinds of problems that are difficult to solve. Some just give up on helping all together and stick themselves.
Fortunately, as a severely disabled person was able to travel and live in five different parts of the United States whenever I was in need of help, strangers came forth and help me unconditionally. I have done the same whenever I could. We have it in us to be kind and generous.

A Day in June (Poetry) - 6/7/2024 3:06:02 PM

We are... (Poetry) - 4/28/2024 10:44:52 AM
We are children playing with our lives not taking advantage of the wisdom of those who have gone before. Until we grow up and start doing the right thing rather than the selfish thing or the stubborn thing. It's easy, but we are more ignorant than ever on most fronts and now need AI to show us the way.

Two (Poetry) - 9/25/2023 10:17:04 AM
Uplifting and simple, but most marriages in the United States divorce. Poems of heartbreak receive more readers.
The reason is quite simple. When people are young they seek out someone physically attractive. But often those physical attractions change with time. With religious prohibitions preventing divorce in the past nearly gone, second marriages often are much better because the two have much more long-term reasons for finding the right one and are more selective.

The Fountain (Poetry) - 9/4/2023 8:36:07 AM
A wise and moral poem. The water is for all to drink.
The Fountain (Poetry) - 4/8/2023 10:28:02 AM
Your poem tells the story that has often happened. It seems that the most depressed are the most open and generous. Compassion is all that is really needed. Some may read it wrong but I believe I read your poem correctly.

Self-sacrifice (Poetry) - 3/20/2023 8:37:13 PM
family, my everything. You say it so well, I love the strength you portray in your beautiful strong poem Bruce
Self-sacrifice (Poetry) - 2/20/2023 9:34:27 AM
From your background, I don't think this is you writing but you are writing for others a mantra for them to recite as they look at themselves in the mirror every day. I remember seeing that being done on Saturday Night Live by one of their writers, Al Franken. His fame got him elected to the Senate and then resigned under claims of sexual harassment.
Certainly don't need to look in the mirror and read that one. Many may need to.

Good and Evil (Poetry) - 6/11/2009 8:29:55 PM
I love this piece. So easy to become misanthropic these days. A vivid portrayal of the forces of good and evil wrapped in eternal battle.
Alone (Poetry) - 3/14/2009 7:14:31 PM
So true words here of a person who detaches himself from society. They cannot believe things as they are and go into a world of their own and are not lonely but out of it and get no support from people who are not alone. I had a few months of no feelings at all and I know I was very alone then too cause when I came out of the state I wa ready ro go back with my family and to my home and loving husband.
In the past this really happened to me, and it is sad that it had to happen. I did it to myself. But ill not do it again. Words never rang so true for me to read in this one and acknowledge having gone trough what this person felt too.
Canyons of the Mind (Poetry) - 3/14/2009 7:11:10 PM
Great, I get the picture here. We can fight off the depression and become ourselves and do better with othrs and ourselves if we just trust and leave things in our minds to heal and to help others to get the picture here too. Our minds do lots for us and we can contol how they are used each day too. You must make your own happiness too each day, everyone should follow that too.
Hands (Poetry) - 3/14/2009 7:09:03 PM
Yes, useful hands do a lot and that is the way it should be. Reminding us what all they can do is so experimental and so constructive in this write. What would we do without hands to give us things and do things for us each day and to use to help others. Don't take them for granted no more, just use them to the fullest of their ability each day.

Alone (Poetry) - 12/24/2006 1:41:26 PM
Mmmm.... There are psychotherapists who would have a field day with this one. It takes the fictional stance of someone in total sociocultural denial, self-inflicted social-sensory deprivation, like someone in a coma. However, the final line, "I will remain lonely," conflicts with the above-stated unfeeling isolation of "I am not lonely." I think this poem is a superb exercise in expressing how it would "feel" to have no feelings. Well done! And Merry Christmas to you.

Imagination (Poetry) - 10/24/2005 2:15:22 PM
"Imagination" delivers many messages that one can learn from.
The main messages I gathered here:
It all depends on the responsible administration of our leaders to
make this a lovely motherland; THE SAME MONEY THAT IS USED TO BRIBE PEOPLE AROUND THE PLANET COULD BE USED TO BUILD HOUSES, HOSPITALS AND SCHOOLS. The Science that is used to destroy could be used to make this planet a HEALTHY ONE.
"Imagination" is a poetic compliance flowing to the lake of awareness, making waves of freedom.

And courage is what we need now by the Grace of God to repel
the evil and darkness of Islamic Terrorism

Will power and true freedom of choice is a wonderful thing :-) This is what I see too :-) there is deep pain from recent hits but those who dare to dream know how to keep the reality alive. The positive being.......the leaders have stood together across the world against recent bombings.......this is rare, this is the beginning of peace and the end of darkness. :-) Great write.

Thank God!
PEACE TO YOU TOO'',

I enjoyed this very much, Bruce. It's a beautiful piece of work.
But, I have to be honest with you. I don't understand the last sentence, in the 4th verse. The part that says:
Ideas that turn the smallest grain of matter into the destruction of the world can also bring indescribable beauty of existence.
I would appreciate if you would respond to tell me what I'm missing.
Thanks Bruce.
Love, Bonnie

Yes, that is unfortunately true. The terrorists could blow up the world, or bio-engineer a virus that would wipe out everyone on earth. I can't spend time worrying about that, nor can you. If we tried harder to curb the excesses of our rightwing officials, we might not have so many enemies, but every day we stay over there adds more of them. Come visit my webpages dedicated to the victims of genocide in Africa. The link is on my poem, "Death Stalks Across Africa (2)".

How interesting, Bruce: quite profound, actually. I don't get the sense that you are speaking of God, rather the world without Him. Still, excellent writing. ~~BonnieQ

Bruce, 'I am' is everywhere. He's omniscient. Your write is very thought provoking.

This is excellent, Bruce, and reveals a wise message to all who allow themselves to become disillusioned, cynical and bitter: an unnecessary, self-destructive endeavor. ~~Bonnie Q

Awesome, Bruce. Ah, "life is an illusion, only love is reality;" and this life is pitifully temporary yet some live it as if it is everything. "Mortals we are, mortals we remain" until we return to dust again. Visit me sometime.
Love in Christ~~
