I'm stuck between the
past and the future.
memories and dreams
life and death.

Reteach me the lesson
Not greatest of all
But most pertinent to me
Which dissolves all resentment
Teach me that of contentment

Say not
That I let my emotions seep
Like a sidewalk stream
Down a sewergrate
No
Instead let it be said
That whatever I felt
Evaporated clearly under the sun
To return to that cloudy head of mine
Up in the sky
