I am a soldier.
Just a soldier, and don’t ask me
What’s the sense
In living.
...
I hope you'll never know
How much I need you;
I hope you'll never know
How much I care.
...
A dropp of water
Shattered the surface
Of depths where darkness
Paints with its crayons
...
Sparkling dust
Of the deepest darkness
Covers my forehead
As I plunge
...
Of dying bird cherry
the scent
was so familiar.
I never could forget
...
I’ll give you one lifetime
Though it’s not enough –
I’d give you some more if I could.
...
I spent the night
dancing with devils.
I gave it. They took it away.
...
My mind and your mind –
What a miracle
So close and yet so many
Worlds apart.
...
There can be days
that leave you
lying on the strand
a piece of wood
...
No sense but nonsense makes my days,
A sense I persuade myself to be a sense
Each morning, hour, every step I take
Except when I forget of making senses.
...
Just A Soldier
I am a soldier.
Just a soldier, and don’t ask me
What’s the sense
In living.
I’ve never come to know it
For myself.
I am a soldier,
Just a soldier on my path
Of war and killing.
Beyond forgiving
And beyond
Contempt.
Carte blanche
As long as Fate commands;
No strings attached
And no amenability.
A puppet with a knife.
Not knowing is so sweet.
What vility.
Can’t find one called ‘Coach’? ?
