Poem – GO BE HAPPY (By John Tustin)

May 12, 2025 Antarctica Journal

GO BE HAPPY   Go be happy. Smile for the camera. Keep moving. Sing and dance like Cab Calloway. Hold his hand and kiss his neck. Buy art deco furniture together. Make sure your shoes match your outfit. Cry with joy as he lifts your veil. Call his name and scratch his back as the walls shake in the vibrating […]

May 19, 2024 Antarctica Journal

HAILSTORM OF HELLFIRE One hour dissolves degradingly into the next And my eyes burn with dead sunlight and my own dusty misery As I wait in helpless spiritual poverty For whatever new hailstorm of hellfire Is next to knock on my door.

Chilling Details

“I know of no single formula for success. But over the years I have observed that some attributes of leadership are universal and are often about finding ways of encouraging people to combine their efforts, their talents, their insights, their enthusiasm and their inspiration to work together.”
