Honest about myself
Not very much
Struggle with mental illness
Mike, Steve, and Hutch

They might say I'm crazy
Might dismiss me might
Thai food today
Two green lights

On disability
Bipolar in my brain
Washington Wizards got the win
We took the Metro train

Life is suffering
Suffering is caused by desire
Carolina Inn
I stare into the fire

                    Higher!

Separated but still married
               Nitnoy oy
               Catteleya

One must go on working
And one must have patience
In Dublin meant to be
In Bangkok Buddha mind

Slowly guacamole
Prayers for Judi and Alex
Washington D.C.
Kinda hard to find

Young sons sung
Susan Darlene Meek
Unable to speak
Little Nikki grind

More than one life only
Shamanistic mystic
Little lotus flower
India inclined

      love is patient and kind

Slowly through the depression
This too shall pass
The beauty of her hair
The beauty of her ***

Baseball with my son
Left handed batter
Wisdom in the strife
Music beyond the chatter

Bubble milk tea
Taipei, Taiwan typhoons
South Riding townhouse
In our kitchen Flaming June

Slowly through the depression
Three mustard seeds
Seattle Space Needle
Tents against the greed

                     Godspeed.

What I'm searching for is feminine
And she's not here with me
In my solitude
Beauty Baltic Sea

The Trappists and Carthusians
Thai forest monks
Driving in my car
Embers in my trunk

Alone with the Alone
All Walls Fall
Took the London train
River Eden, Wetheral

Encounters with Chinese Hermits
Eliade and the rain
Shinkansen to Kyoto
Vegetarian tacos in La Mancha, Spain

               Portland, Oregon
               Portland, Maine.

I can't find what I'm searching for
                  despondency
                     endurance

all our theologies broken
lonely, silent nights
prayers for the animals
my Mr. Spock kite

American decline
Trumpfucks in the hours
She got closure and moved on
But she gave me Hope for the Flowers

Probably never see her again
Episcopaliens
2 green lights
Thomas means the Twin

I can live with the sadness
Sleep, precious sleep
Free, free Palestine
Comfort those who weep

                    Silencio.
