ZEN AND THE ART OF OPPORTUNITY
Yesterday I resisted you
Tomorrow gone mute you fly away
...
A FEW DAYS CAN MAKE A SHORT WICK
I just wanted you to know
How much I've enjoyed our time together
...
ONE HALLUCINATION UNDER GOD
Sometimes the healing process and the aging process
Will not mix well together
...
ASSISTED LOVING
She had accommodated to these corridors
In this home that was not her home
...
LES DEMOISELLES D'AVIGNON
As an accident looking for a place to happen
As a comet visible only to dogs
...
THE OXYMORONS WALK AMONG US
Just because we hear music
Doesn't mean we have rhythm
...
PSALM OF THESE DAYS
Before breakfast birds
Between grain of mouth
...
AN OLD YIN AND YANG SONNET
For every Isaac there is an Ishmael
All the wheels go round and round
...
Zen And The Art Of Opportunity
ZEN AND THE ART OF OPPORTUNITY
Yesterday I resisted you
Tomorrow gone mute you fly away
Yesterday you were black as the track of fright
Tomorrow I will be white as the underside of ambition
Yesterday you said you would be the one true teacher
Tomorrow I graduate with honors and other animals
Yesterday you pushed the sun closer to the moon
Tomorrow the stars realign and spell forgiveness
Yesterday I will never have again
Tomorrow will always be mine - except one time
