goldtooth grin

I wish that I was wise enough
to know a deed or a simple word
to undo and unwind what I have said
and who I have been up until this point
...

Hey young September
you're growing old way too quick
I remember smell of salt
lying with her on the beach
...

Deep in your lungs
I can hear wild horses
Herded for the night
To catch some rest
...

Dear Love

If you ever feel like crying
take a deep breath and stop
...

I was walking barefoot
On the ocean bed
Strewn with broken bottles
Warmed by my hands
...

in the land of first impressions I wouldn't stand much chance,
for the DNA I inherited is oh so moderate
moderately intelligent,
I am traveled moderately well,
...

All the sins
That you call mine
Wait their turn
Till you load them up
...

Three days?
Really?
Is that all it takes?
Three days without food
...

I drove into a flock
of dirty, lazy pigeons
yet none of them got hurt
...

you know how they say:
' less is more '?

my cancer certainly
...

strange indeed
how incrementally it all changes
strange indeed
how incrementally a thing can break
...

yes it's true
I cheer every time our troops kill a man in a land far away
we nod our heads in a drunk unison:
'that man was guilty as hell! '
...

The far end of this wire
Will hopefully be
Right where you put your head
To sleep
...

'wish I could just close my eyes
and make it all go away'
she said over a cup of coffee
looking at her pregnancy test
...
