here you stand looking
at each other with love do
this for all of life

Just one of the people
No longer a teacher
Vegetarian burritos
A little won ton soup

Not in the best health
Diabetes and a sweet tooth
Gout. Bipolar.
Trouble with myself

A love of traveling
European history
Daily getting by
Movies. Yes, I like.

Not too many friends
Call my beloved sons
Politics Portends
Sleeping late and long

       Springsteen song

When I asked my mum
What she sees when she looks at me,
She gently replied: “My girl!”
Such warmth filled my heart.
With those words,
Such a visceral response received.
Is that what truth and joy feel like?
Love.

Tonight there were fireworks,
They went off over the lake.
They were so loud,
It was like they were trying to blow a hole in the sky.

Its you
Only you
Always you
Eternally you. .!!!

I’d like a Luigi Mangione
perforated pizza with a
hole in the middle, extra
C.E.O. topping of cheese
eggplant and olives presto!
