It's a treasure trove
Words tossed up like confetti
Falling in our hearts

Forgive me
if I stay too long
or ask too much of you.

I cannot help
being what I am,
lingering
near the feast of  you
like a starving man
over-indulgent
at the table.

I collect myself from far and near
The world has become unclear
What is right now is wrong
Lies are taught from dusk till dawn

Qualyxian Quest
Vaguely headachy
Need for real rest

I lie awake, sir,
Black shirt on my chest

Hagia Sophia
Istanbul may be best

Rick Steves can lead me
Qualyxian Quest

Then to Seattle
Like a bird to its nest

Ferry boats at twilight
Windwater Northwest

A friend of mine told me
I write when I’m sad
She said it is as if I am in pain
And I said when I write it rains
When I put the pen on paper the clouds get dark
And when I stop
The birds of the sky sings
Coming out to play as the sun is out

— The End —
