I walked back to look at the moon tonight
You see I walked past the moon
as I had
on many other nights,
...
He remains in the box
clicking away on his keyboard
doing all the work for which he
has no time to delegate it to others.
...
Unsettled
the prospect of the future unknown
the prospecting of the past known
the current state of affairs in flux, moving, not hesitating
...
heart palpitations
signal
future imagined events
current worries and past history
...
I turned right on 43rd street,
headed for the meeting
passed by the Hagstrom Map store, and thought
do I need to go in
...
Is it destiny or is it happening in the moment?
I have been taught both
I have learned nothing
I have experienced, gained knowledge, but...
...
As I consider leaving,
I think of what it is that is here,
it seems that when you concentrate on a point,
you miss all the scenery around,
...
There was a strong pain
which seared my heart...
the scar tissue remains
to remind me
...
I won't be defeated by the night,
I won't be defeated by the night,
The darkness
that precedes the emptiness,
...
At the place to go to
where the silence and sounds are intertwined
the waves resonance, life itself
seabirds filling the air and the sand, on alert
...

I Walked Back To Look At The Moon Tonight
I walked back to look at the moon tonight
You see I walked past the moon
as I had
on many other nights,
but tonight as I passed by the two story building
the moon checked into my peripheral vision as
I kept walking
but then
suddenly
my thoughts were
look at the marvel, look at the light, look at the shape,
go back, spend time
it's there for you
and so I walked back to look at the moon
full as it was
there for me to see
