Brown sugar 
and cacao
at the
same time
sweet leading
bitter finishing
a taste
of caution
that always
looks better
wrapped than
it does
eaten except
when paired
with something
robust and
luxurious for
they complement
hmmm just
like us

SleepyOne

It’s time 
I said
to go
and ever
so delicately
removed myself
from the
vines you
become nightly
funny when
I think
for during
the day
you are
a cactus
but at
night you
become a
rain forest

Friends

We make 
what we
have and
have what
we dream
the rest
is what
others do
and then
if destiny
so decides
they merge
somewhere downstream
and become
the river
that friends
can be

Letting

Letting be 
also means
letting go
and means
letting come
never force
never take
never refuse
just be
the letting
be then
nothing more
than wind
for the
wind moves
while invisible
for whoever
sees the
wind no
one but
everyone can
feel it

Anything (for John)

That’s all
that it
is anything
that’s all
that’s ever
been and
that’s all
that it’s
ever going
to be
this anything
that anything
that’s all
