Library again soon
Quiet. Wood and glass.
Just a few people
A lot of calling books

I write my postcards
Yes, I know it's Absurd
Quiet desperation
          Gadzooks!

Talk with my oldest today
He's applying to college
Q callooh! callay!
Slowly moving forward

Silent is the Way
Keep him right on track
Destiny hey hey
Forward, not falling back

                      Q!

Small victories
Lonely life
Dailiness
Als Ick Kan

Vienna
Copenhagen
London
Gamla Stan


Journey on ...

Spain in the sunshine
Bangkok in the rain
Mexican burritos
I ride the Downbound Train

Please protect my sons, O Life!
We meet in the refrain
Ice and snow, yoko yo yo
I'm alone again

Chloroform in print.

I'd like to live in libraries
Long after I am gone
She reads me on the train
One beautiful fawn

Seattle University
Library all alone
Maybe Paris, France
Very far from home

Maybe JMU
Near Dr. Thomas
Help me endure to the end
Help me keep my promise

                  Amen.

Sunlit Italy
Rome on my honeymoon
Grazie
