A Meditation On Beauty, And Our Cruel Nature

Carl Setzer

Life’s immense beauty
Gets overshadowed sometimes
By crass destruction

It concerns me, at times, how much we prefer destructive rhetoric over the positive. There are times I wonder if we, as a group, know how. 


Make The World Better

Carl Setzer

I try so very hard
Birth positive energy
Make the world better

The world is so ugly, so brutal, and I feel it’s critical to counter that. At times, it seems like I’m fighting the incoming tide with a paper cup. Perhaps it’s not enough, too little, but it’s what i must do.

A Good Morning Haiku

Carl Setzer

Good Morning my friends
What will you do with this day?
A gift most divine?

Time is all we have. And, more critically,”now”. We’re not guaranteed tomorrow. So, remember to get done what’s important.

Getting To Win-Win

Carl Setzer

You can’t get win-win 

By being driven by your fears 

Only love drives this
