Donald Trump is a demagogue
The Americans are his chumps
Come, sail away
Seek a different world

I majored in philosophy
Probably a mistake
Mr. David Markson
Lady of the Lake

There's no clear Answer
Just the living days
Thank you for my sons

               Endurance!

Just can't relax
Agitation. Agitation.
Does no good
Quiet meditation

Life as torment
Very little peace
Tragedy and Comedy
Shakespeare and Ancient Greece

Please protection for my sons
A little happiness
European cities
A pretty prom dress

Un Escritor
Vegetarian burritos
Momentary calm
My mother's grave in Toledo

I sense the sadness in his voice
                  endurance
                        hope!

One eye on the ancient world
Latin. Hebrew. Greek.
One eye on Rick Steves
One heart for Susan Meek

I liked living in Ireland
I like the Dublin mist
America falls for Trump
One man he resist!

I'm no one important
Lonely nights alone
Give my best to Chicago
Culianu, Ioan.

            E.T. phone home!

Down and delirious in Mexico City
Spring break in L.A.
Phone call to my son
Basketball to play

Somewhere Across the Border
Sleep my love and I
3 dear deer
I Thai Wai

                       Sigh ...

Mr. David Markson
Viva Mexico
One man come he to justify
One man to Overthrow!

In my solitude
Silent is the way
Holy Toledo! Ohio
Dawn goes down to day

Please happiness for my son
Magic still to play
Please give up your guns
Por favor. Xie xie.

sick and suffering, they said
sick and suffering is true
Embers, City of Ember
Pondicherry Zoo

The gout is very painful
I'm Carolina blue
Rothko red and orange
Me at Seattle U.
