Happy

It’s impossible to

Be happy being

Anyone else besides

Yourself want to

Be happy be

The truth in

You

ThinkFeelThink (for Jay)

Remember my boy

That there are

Things we think

But deeper there

Are things we

Feel that makes

Us think the

Things we think

LiveLoveLife

Sometimes we live

Life and love

To love and

Sometimes if we’re

Lucky we love

To live and

Sometimes luckily we

Live to love

Be

In life there

Is who you

Are and there

Is what you

Were meant to

Be

Like a hatchling

Fresh and new

Happy to live

In the nest

Suddenly realizing flight

Knowing then that

A bird is

What it was

Meant to always

Be

Auger (to Zeke)

And talk we

Did like birds

On a wire

This discovery of

Each other like

Scouring a crime

Scene for clues

Led from one

Topic to another

Like hunting dogs

Catching one scent

After the next

Drilling down we

Did taking pebbles

Of life out

Of each other

Like the augers

Of natural attraction
