I live
a life
of that
I do
not how
or when
or why
or where
that is
where I
am at
Calls
I sit in
the silence having
at once thought
that I knew
and now I
know I didn’t
so what to
do with all
of these answers
nothing I guess
for they’re just
calls from telemarketers
of my ego
Funniest
The funniest part
to the joke
that I am
is that no
one truly cares
now nor then
nor ever when
and only I
am the one
laughing for only
I truly do
Lovely
There’s just something
about classical guitar
it’s almost like
my heart strings
which for so
long felt out
of tune have
found their notes
again and harmony
that I’ve long
thought was lost
sings its lovely
Admittedly
In hindsight and
with the kind
of pain that
only comes late
in the night
I finally admitted
that the valor
that I’d embraced
so many years
ago that selflessness
was somehow better
than being selfish
then I blamed
others for taking
advantage of me
so I set
out to be
selfish with myself
at long last
and generous to
those I choose
and not everyone
and that little
shift has made
all the difference
