So much sleeping
Grey day blues
          Rest
I'm not in good health
Got the diabetes
Sleeping through the day
Aging, aging, aging

Gonna see my son
Keep him, keep him close
Ordinary living
In Dublin meant to be

                     Si.
So much worry
        Slowly
          hope
California Coast
    Tidal pools
          Grey
Just ordinary life
Text my son, sleep the day
A little Chinese food
For which I say xie xie

Ordinary life
Nothing bipolar, nothing grand
Text my son
E Street Band

in my solitude
relentlessly I age
time tick tocks

all she is is rage

Just playing
Just playing with words
Kamakura snow
Misty Seattle rain
I don't really know

Fatherhood is difficult
And I love them so
Courage going forward
Yoko yo yo yo yo!
Poems from my dreams
Just a feeling, impression
Try to find a word
Waking and it goes

I miss my basketball team
My letter was confession
Yes, it's all Absurd
O those Seattle snows!

               Solitude

Horse with no name
Just a nightmare
Guilt, anxiety, terror

I'm drawn to sleep as I age
                Fearless
                 Dreams

on freedom
A little poetry
A little bit of travel
Dinner with my family
A night of fearless sleep

                   Release.
In Reno it's the big blue sky
In California it's the coast
She haunts my aging nights
A kind of teenage ghost

I too will pass away
Vanish with a trace
Her ****, **** voice
The beauty of her face

                    Space!

Hugs
I can't find the words
Don't know what to say
Got the diabetes
Poe, Finn, and Rey

I'm up in the night
Sleep in the day
Hugs, she said to me
Silently I pray

            xie xie
Northern Virginia isn't ****
But it's solid, steady, stable
Once I was a teacher there
Now I am disabled

Postcards in the mail
Books upon the table
3 Korean shamans
7 Chinese fables

                 the Way
Timor mortis conturbat me
Will it come at night?
Will I be in pain?
Will I be in fright?

Please protect my sons, O Life!
They need a little light
And a little fun
Sor Juana's mystic flight

                     Alright!
So much driving
Get him safely home
      Sleep in peace.
He says poetry is eternal graffiti
Written in the hearts of everyone:

                       **** Trump!
Frederick, Maryland is ordinary
I just drive my car
Home a little late
Exoplanet star

Childhood recedes
I like Irish bars
Kells in Seattle
Distances so far

                          Singing!

No words
I'm not an academic
I no longer teach
Everything I want
Forever out of reach

First time I kissed her
That night at the beach
No words. No words.
Beyond all speech
Just the ordinary
   Passes away
     Si xie xie

Poems on rocks
Medieval alleyways
California Coast
Burning down the days

Lake Tahoe in the winter
Let me count the ways
Moroccan mint tea
Respite in the Maze

                  Oles! :)
Strange dream
Air Force blues
My brain insane
Got no clues

Wake up sickly
Pay my dues
