GoingHome

Like a duck

On a pond

I have heard

The winds song

Time to go

It is saying

This isn’t home

Home is there

Way out there

Beyond your imagination

Here is where

Home let you

Be before you

Eventually get there

ControlledBurn

Sometimes in life

I set fire

To those things

Close to me

Not to watch

Them burn but

Rather to see

Which are strongest

This includes friends

Two nights ago

I ignited a

Firestorm call it

A controlled burn

Which laid waste

To almost everyone

In my path

For one reason

To give light

To new friends

And reduce others

To simple ash

Promoting new growth

MyTime

In the silence

Of my making

I have found

My own thoughts

That comfort me

All is quiet

Except for breath

And my heart

And my memories

Making me smile

Mirror (for Egon)

I think that

Everything seen in

A mirror dislikes

It’s own reflection

But when one

Sees two things

Not being one

Of those one

Sees far more

Of that one

Than that one

Will ever ever

See of itself

OhThatKiss (for Jackson)

Once in forever

Something is struck

Breeze on chime

Hammer on anvil

Pressure on coal

Asteroid on planet

And something happens

That’s so cataclysmic

That’s so defining

That it changes

Absolutely everything else

That’s what I

Felt when you

Shared your story

About that kiss

Oh that kiss

That one kiss

That kiss that

Did redefine everything
