Again

AGAIN

 

Distractions,
life stuff
arise
dawn dim
grip the wheel
slog along the asphalt.
Distaste.
Psyche gurgles
agitates
coughs
sputters
spits.
Awash in yesterday’s promises.

Elusive

ELUSIVE

 

From Embarcadero to Grand Central

Gypsy heart will not be stilled.    
 O’er the roads,                      
Rumbles down the tracks,
Silver rocket fly afire,
  Nights to dawn,
Chasing,

Relentless.
  Yearning.

  Ever

    Yearning.

Them

THEM

 

My wealth is not jingle
nor a heart forever throbs.
No,
‘tis Them beside me strode a mile,
saw me home
and asked to keep my smile.

Getting There

GETTING THERE

 

I am an onion.
Peel a layer.
I am colder,
Aware
I must be colder
 still.
