Looking
Out
Only
Sky
All
This
Time
Lost
Watching
White
Trucks
Carrying
Empty
Husks
On
To
Eternity
Am
I
The
Only
One
Who
Can
See
This
Travesty
?

Gaze
Seductive
Darkness

Black

Gradients
Of
Trouble
Capture
This
Weary
Mind
Lie
Still
You
Hopeful
Hostage
Thirsting
For
Sleep’s
Tranquil
Sanctuary
Assuredly
Salvation
Is
Just
Moments
Away

Some days
I
Feel
Like
I
Am
Falling
Through
The
World
But
Some days
The
World
Feels
Like
It
Is
Falling
Through
Me
Sounds
Colors
Sirens
Am
I
The
Prism
That
Brings
The
Rainbow
Into
Focus
Or
Just
Another
Looking
Glass
Mirroring
What
I
See
?

Sunlight
Dappled
Wood
Floor
Old rocking chair
And
A
Breeze
That
Smells
Of
Summer
Tall
Grass
Dances
Birds
Expand
And
Contract
Accordion
Style
Their
Flight
A
Music
Unto
Itself
Such
Rare
Beauty
Far as the eye can see
In this moment
Everything
Is
Alive
Especially
Me

You
Are
My
Phantom
Pain
My
Missing
Limb
The
Piece
I
Just
Can’t
Find
The
Friend
I
Lost
Along
The
Way
One
Day
There
As
Dear
As
Ever
Until
The
Call
Took
You
Suddenly
Quickly
Spirited
Away
Put
Your
Beautiful
Soul
Into
A
Five-sided granite box
With
Windows
Going
Nowhere
So
Everyone
Can
Watch
The
Politics
****
You
Fast
As
****
Slow
As
Creeping
Wood
Rot
I
Mourn
The
Loss
Of
Another
Good
Friend

I
Love
The
Colors
And
Smells
Of
Warm
Cinnamon
And
Ground
Beans
Muffins
And
Green
Tea
The rustle
Of
A
Newspaper
The
Quiet
Clicking
Of
Keys
Gives my
Weary
Heart
A
Break
And
A
Safe
Place
To
Be

Don’t
Is the worst
Word
It limits
It binds
It confines
Chokes
Off
Life
Don’t go too far
Don’t run too fast
Don’t work too hard
Don’t fly too high
Don’t love him or her
Don’t cross that line
Red warning lights ahead
If you
Don’t
Fall in line
But not me
I want to build the biggest wings
And
Fly
Until
My
Skin
Is
Ablaze
I want to break
All the boundaries
I want to go where
I shouldn’t
I want to feel
So alive
That
Every
Second
That passes
Is
A
Glorious
Eternity
Fearless passion
As
I dive
From
On
High
And even
If
I go
Down
In
Flames
It will
Be
Such
A
Beautiful
Demise
Every
Single
Moment
Of
My
Burning
Will
Be
Worth
It

You
Have
A
Complicated
Smile
He
Informed
Me
Why
Is
That
?
How
To
Answer
A
Question
So
Simple
While
Truth
Is
So
Complex
How
Do
You
Explain
VerMeer’s
Obsession
Light
And
Dark
Einstein’s
Spooky
Action
At
A
Distance
Is
It
All
Intertwined
Or
Separately
Defined
Explain
Pain
Or
Fear
Anger
Or
Shame
Does
My
Loneliness
Look
Like
Yours
Or is it
Unique
In
All
The
Universe
When
I
Think
Feel
Want
See
Love
What
Does
It
Mean
Seem
Is
Be
To you
Is
It
Like
Mine
Or
Will
My
Dark
Conflict
With
Your
Light
Will
My
Truth
Scare
You
Off
Or did my
Smile
Already
Tell
You
All
You
Need
To
Know

People tell me
I should be
sad
Because
Life is hard
How
Can
I
Be
sad
When
Watching a
Pug
Carrying a stuffed
Hedgehog half
Her
Size
Up two flights of
Stairs
On her way to bed
Or being greeted by furry smiles
And optimistic tails
Every morning
Regardless of wind or rain
Heat or cold
Aching joints or creaking
Bones
I hope if I’m deserving
I come back with doggy optimism
The whimsy of a Pug
The strength of a Mastiff
The endurance of a Husky
The smarts of a Border Collie
Because then
I will be
Truly
Fortunate

My friend reminds me of summer
He smells of fresh cut grass
And clean air
A mosaic
Blue sky and clouds
Wildflower meadows
Cold running streams
He is warm and musical
Kind and funny
But his eyes are sometimes sad
He has the biggest heart
And tries and strives to be and do
So much for so many
He often forgets to account for himself
I think there is a hole
Deep inside
His heart seeks to fill
And somedays he is lonely
Even when he is not alone
He gives the best hugs
and tells the best jokes
He is patient when I am an idiot
Which sometimes is a lot
He is kind when I am afraid
Which happens more
Than I like to admit
He is just as mortal and vulnerable
As anyone else
He doesn’t hide from it
It becomes his strength
He stands boldly
In the face of harsh challenges
alone
Like a superhero or maybe a myth
Few men have the will to try
It’s funny to watch
The people scurry by him
As if
He is untouchable and unknowable
Titles can be a cruel endowment
For people with good hearts
All
I see
When I look at him
Creative passionate soul
Big hearted
Knucklehead
Little boy
Emperor king
A man of complex nature
A man of contrasts
Light and dark and rainbow prisms
Soul and funk and jazz
A perfectly unique recipe
For a man
My friend
