Prophecy
Open your eyes... can't you see?
Twill surely never be
Your life, was long ago, charted
Reach out with your hand |
Romance
Romance is not
Romance is so
Romance thrives on |
coltrane
she writes to me of erecting shrines the one i've been secretly carrying around
when she refers to my own recent declarations -- of the honesty of all those syllabic grunts i've purged onto paper from out of the void what reverberates between our silences is 'trane's own longing tenor wail
the gift of balance now or ever -- (or both)
the words she writes seem almost unneccesary they belong to the animals. certain truths must never die. |
Girlfriend
the dark red bloodthirsty feline
loving - If Love
If love comes to you
If love stays with you
If love should leave you
If love should return |
the same dragonfly

it's a special edition of the new york times
i'm sitting in a bus station
it's 1969 and i'm waiting for you
our bus left 2 hours ago
i'm still waiting for you

how far away it was
i'm standing over my father waiting for his next breath and it comes and another and then i'm waiting for his next breath again and i count
one thousand and one
like he taught me |
