Our Soul’s Gestation

Each vessel is an apple:

Round, annular and beaming

exuding empathy, caliber.

Full to the brim, to the core

unsure of how to grow.

Only anticipating the ceaseless picking –

Imagine such an aimless existence!

Whole and uncorrupted,

permanently cherished;

And momentarily

loved

by all children.

Duckduckgo – the real alternative and a search engine that actually works. Without much censorship or partisan politics.

Yahoo– yes, it’s still around, amazingly, miraculously, incredibly, but now it seems to be powered by Bing.
