Ice and snow all day today
I still inside and sleep
Talk to my sons
Chinese food at night

Embers
City of Ember
All the King's Men
Gatsby's green light

                       Flight!

Un poco Espanyol
Me gusta Florida sun
Irish eyes are smiling
Taipei 101

Is life an illusion?
Baby, Born to Run
Toledo, Ohio - Toledo, Spain
Un pequito fun

I got the bipolar still
Take my monthly injection
Ice and snow fall down
Sleeping in the night

My sons, my beautiful sons
Hang on, hold tight.

                       Alright!

Ice and snow
Yoko yo yo
       Zero

The gyoza tasted good
Snow comes falling down
No one important
The song of the clown

Cold winter night
I struggle, struggle through
Get them home safely
Maybe JMU for Q

           Maybe Carolina blue

Now she lives in you
Which is what Pat Hinman told me
When my mom died.

               I tried, Mom. I tried.

Emptiness. Silence. Compassion.

15 year old dies of cancer
      Celebration of Life
              Compassion

I take 6 different medicines
             see the doc
                  sleep

Rothko. Melville. Markson.

For Q!
be true
3772

Chinese food today
          xie xie
              tea

Anxiety attacks
    medicine
    sleeping

Struggling to get through
Struggle is what I do
Hopes and fears comingle
Pondicherry Zoo

Maybe JMU
Get him in to view
Step by step by step
Battle back the blue

                      For Q!

The Americans are ignorant
See how they run
Late night taxi home
From Taipei 101

Stay inside and sleep
Please give up your guns
Humanity born to weep
Pero un pequito fun

                Volleyball!

my sons: callooh! callay!
       day by day by day
                    hope!

I got the diabetes
Wish I didn't, but I do
I'm tired this cold morning
And I don't have you

Me reading all alone
Library at Seattle U.
Mario Cuomo writing
Horton Hears a Who

                   still blue

muddle through
       slowly
     patience

The diabetes makes me tired
I lay in bed and lonely
Things fall apart
I'm growing old

Keep them, keep them close
Grateful for small victories
Another day
Note to self: don't fold.

........What a horrible day.......
fighting, sickness, suffering
                    strife

55 and falling
Try to do my best
American Despair
I need a little rest

Please, Life, protect my boys
Qualyxian the Quest
Tired. Exoplanets.
Way out, Way out West

European history
Ever ancient, Ever new
Her gentleness y mystery
Susan Meek not Sue

Picasso's Guernica
Rothko green and blue
License plate tonight:

I don't wanna go home tonight
Sit here for many hours
Drifting. Always drifting.
La Florida, the Land of Flowers

                         Ole!

Leonard Cohen in London
Quite late along
They don't let a woman **** you
Not in the Tower of Song

I took a train from London
River Eden, Wetheral
Cambrian Explosion
Don't forget to call

                     Right, y'all?

my so-called life
      struggling
        sadness

Crossing the Baltic
  young sons sung
       exoplanets!

Seattle to San Francisco
           Zen Center
              silence

I reach out but do not reach
Yo soy un isolato
First kissed her at the beach
Never forget that night

All these little poems
Dread mortality
Fatherhood is gratitude
Sor Juana's mystic flight

                Well, alright!

Japanese gardens
            Rieko
               tea

Little poems
   sunlight
   milk tea

I see 37 and 72 on license plates
Don't know if it means
Once I was a teacher
Read the Giver with the tweens

Snow on the ground today
Chili at the bar
Aliens above?
Exoplanet star!

Ordinary dailiness
To sleep perchance to dream
Poetry like basketball
I play for my team

                     Hoopin'!

I'm kinda California
More North than South
San Francisco Zen
Somethin' brave from your mouth

Moroccan mint tea
Lovely Japanese garden
Bob Dylan in Lake Tahoe
'Scuse me ma'am, beg your pardon

                          Sunlight!

Yo soy un isolato
Tryin' to break free
One foot upon the sand
Two hearts upon the sea

Maybe aliens
Maybe destiny
Taipei 101
Red Pine - xie xie ni

                    Si.

There's not much you can do about evil
That's what he said to me
But try to be like Zacchaeus
Dream of destiny

Rode the bus through town
My boys still quite young
Ate some licorice
Young sons sung

                       Kells!

I've seen the Asian rains
Rode the bullet trains
Never been to Heaven
Never been to Spain

I'm fond of dear Taipei
2 years there - xie xie
101 at night
Silent is the Way

                 Ole!

White snow
Black cop
    Mexico

Detroit's Fox Theater
       Winter Night
           Tom Joad

David Markson
         Joan
    Als Ick Kan

Small victories
Noble truths
    silence

............Dylan.........
  Jimmy Reed indeed
    Down in Virginia

Just a few days in London
A bit overwhelming
Didn't get the teaching job
In the pub alone at night

Carolina blue
Rainy Night in Georgia
Nashville with my brother
Charleston at the beach

Saw Blade Runner 2049 in Bangkok
Motorcycle taxis in the rain
Som Tam
Buddhamind in the temples

Lost in Translation
Charlotte: philosophy
More than this
Tokyo bullet train

                        Arigato, Rieko!

Up in the night
On my phone again
Quiet desperation
Exoplanet star!

London in the mist
Mozart Christmas Eve
Catch a flight to Dublin
Come Out Ye Black and Tans!

Charlotte was my dream
Kindly Indian neighbors
Got all green for Holi
Never saw a goddess go

Patience with myself
55 and falling
River Eden, Wetheral
Cambrian Cai - Aye! Aye! Aye!

More snow tonight
I sleep in peace
Modern Istanbul
More than Ancient Greece

Paul McCartney in Baltimore
Sting and the Police
A few poems, exoplanets
1 prayer for my niece

                    Sully!
