God is the metaphor
for a random universe.
And the scientific savants
are busy untangling bits
...
The doctors with their pills and manipulations
Plug the holes in the dikes of life
Keeping the ocean of death at bay.
But the dikes crumble slowly or fast
...
Winter - the minimalist time
So very white
With snow and rime—
And black where white
...
I must write it now.
Now!
Why, I do not know.
But my demons
...
Ruth –
You sweet tart apple –
Lying on the ground,
I found you,
...
I was very depressed; I also have a couple of life threatening conditions, but no overt symptoms, and I think I spoke too soon, but here it is.
Do not weep for me my love,
Do not weep for me.
...
That tiny blotch upon my skin –
I watch it grow
and hope it won’t begin
to spread too far.
...
I don't cry into the darkness
I write poetry instead.
I write what comes into my head—
Sometimes it's light, like helium
...
