The future always changes; / It never stays the same. / But I still sing the old songs

He's gone traveling today, / Off to adventure far away. / I labor time as I pine

Farewell Trust
He is the most wonderful father. / *Haven't you seen his eyes when he holds her? / Haven't you seen them slowly amble?*

Untitled
Speckled brow and gnarled knees / Crooked elbows, yellow teeth, / Breath that floats like infesting fleas.

With the Waves
Steel and grain let escape, / Settling into the depths of the woven wool, / The citrus dust of the emerging art.

Lonely?
I get it tonight. I'm lonely. This time I understand. Sometimes all I know is that I am sad. Tonight I have a sweeter word. Lonely. Lonely. Lone. lee. / It's beautiful, isn't it? My friends are getting married. They have been doing so for several years. If I had a writing desk and a garden, I could be Dickinson. I have a brake light instead, but hey, I fixed it myself. Along with the red clock. I fixed that too. / I'm going to spend time with him tonight. He doesn't know I will actually stay at my desk while I sit on the couch with him. My friends have gotten married.
