I love bright mornings
cold air bites,warm bricks glow orange
day breaks over me

Send Me a Postcard
poetryWhen you finally arrive, please let me know.
Let me know that you made it.
(At least when you think you’ve made it.)
When you’ve found success and meaning—
Wholeness.
I’d love to know when reach that place
But there’s this uncanny intuition
That’s telling me you never will.
But if you ever do make it on your own,
Without the help of someone much greater
Than yourself – you let me know.
I’ll be waiting (forever.)
awake is sand
poetryeverywhere i go i hear people talkin’ bout themselves
so very short of content but they got alot to sell
they say “every day’s a torment i am in a living hell”
and the rooms they fill with dust
at the mall the body-paint stores are packed
they got the lacquer for the skin of the stars
they got the happenin’ boats and the cars
got easy ways to talk about yourself when its hard
sometimes i see my friends there
they all make me want to go back to sleep
contained panic
poetryit starts down low
and moves pretty slow,
tightening my guts,
making me feel nuts,
then slowly rising up
but not quite to throw up;
so i try to breath deep
and close my eyes to sleep,
then submerge myself in work
which is as helpful as a spork;
and when someone comes in,
hide it all behind a grin.
Forceful
poetrymake me
make my
fingers move
oh, make it
make it so
so I can
make the
music, make
the sounds
I made so
long ago
again, just
make me
make my
fingers move
oh make it
make it
so
