Peace lives
through breath
though it
doesn’t breathe
it’s heard
through smiles
though it
doesn’t laugh
it’s seen
in action
though it
doesn’t move
and peace
is felt
though it
doesn’t touch

Difference
I don’t
talk about
what I
don’t have
I spend
my time
counting what
I do
and that
little difference
has made
all the
difference that’s
ever mattered
Pleasure
I thought I
would be but
I haven’t been
anything at all
not that this
or anything else
at all mattered
meant or made
me into it
tinker poet lover
or thief I’ve
stolen the better
parts of others
turning them into
things of beauty
to my pleasure
What
What if what
of everything that
you have has
come to you
but not because
you’ve wanted it
but because you
were bright enough
to be found
just what if
all that you’ve
ever was never
even about you
Day
Dust of
early day
as nights
dark bruise
turns slowly
to blue
then yellow
and gone
windows whisper
good morning
as thoughts
start simmering
