Tokyo to Kyoto
Upon the Shinkansen

South from Seattle
San Francisco Zen

Not really a question of if
More a question of when

Will I too disappear
Like I've never ever been?
I hope I rest in peace
Silence be my friend
Some good thing to do
Before the bitter end

Ah! Psychiatry
I like to pretend
Late at night and longing
Wind and water wend

                    Amen.
Politics is hideous
Cold this winter night
Alex teaching in Tucson
Sor Juana's mystic flight

Talk to my son on the phone
His voice is like a light
Slowly guacamole
My Mr. Spock kite

                 Well, alright!
Korean hot *** for my family
            another night
              please calm
The sadness
  Kindness
Compassion
kinda California
San Francisco in the mist
kinda California
******* times like this

Lake Tahoe snow
my hand upon her wrist
Donald Trump is fascism
with an American twist

                Resist!
Tacos for my lunch
Still cold and snow outside
When I was in Ireland
Quaint was Malahide

Mr. David Markson
Alone in New York City
Me a week in Rome
The Roman women are so pretty

Susan Darlene Meek
Dark hair, blue eyes
Fr. Greeley told the truth
George W. Lies

                       Lies.
