JONATHAN MOYA December 6, 2019

Mr. Rogers grace exists in miniature cities of kindness, - the tranquil tones of forgiveness, level to the eye of a single frighten child. - For him, and in that moment, that child is the  most precious thing in the world. - He blesses them with positive ways of dealing with their feelings; - the…

The Good Liar

JONATHAN MOYA November 19, 2019

It’s hard to tell the lies of impression, the little bits of puffery that makes one look good in the eyes of a would be admirer. - One may say their name with a French flair. Betty becomes Bette. Roy becomes Roy-al, with the long affected A stretched out to tomorrow. - One may even…

JONATHAN MOYA November 17, 2019

Every Angel Second Class jumps into the river of George Bailey’s despair, and after being rescued shows everything that never should have existed, everything that was, everything that could be contained in the Odbody of his inner existence, the baptism, the worth and joy of all his toil. - -No man gets into heaven by…

Veteran Day

JONATHAN MOYA November 11, 2019

The stars on the flag started falling off when Private Walker returned home to Tennessee after six months of being in country in Afghanistan. - At Camp Leatherneck on the treadmill he folded five points to pentagrams, imagined fireworks nova his welcome back. - The flag rarely flapped in the arid silence of base camp.…

Making It- Midway (A Movie Poem)

JONATHAN MOYA November 10, 2019

Stella remembers when the Zeros flew thru her backyard and she saw Pearl Harbor in flames, blue bodies bouncing on the waves. - Afterward, welders melted the steel of capsized destroyers hoping to rescue any upside down survivors. - Her Billy drafted six months before would fly Wildcats in the Marshall Islands and in the…
