Early Autumn
     Twilight
       Sleep

Inner Harbor, Baltimore
                    Poe
                  Snow

Soon soul September
Chill in the air
Leaves begin to fall
I walk and stare

Ordinary living
Get my son from school
Noble, noble Cordelia
King Lear is a fool

                Staunton!

The first hints of Fall
Cool in the air
Does anybody know?
Does anybody care?

Down goes down to day
County fair! County fair!
Silent is the Way
Silent is my prayer.

No one important
            Rest
           Peace.

Continue to be patient
And trust your journey.

Mr. David Markson
Timor mortis conturbat me
          Gracias, Senyor.

the false quest for the timeless
            time is all we have

late summer sun
     Taipei 101
    Day is Done

I like postcards
       stamps
       tramps

Late summer blues
Now back to school
Dr. Cohen a scholar
Harold Bloom a fool

Tired. Exoplanets!
Awake in the night
Seattle ferry boats
Burning blue twilight

         mystic flight

no one important
eating drinking sleep
promises to keep

                 Ole!

Frederick, Maryland
          Ordinary
             Sleep

Legos for my youngest son
             Himeji castle
                    Arigato

Keep him close to me
Keep him safely led
Keep him happiness
After I am dead

A little Seattle snow
Paris in the spring
Music in the night
Gentle wedding ring

                  Sing!

Sleeping all day
Tired as I age
Mr. David Markson
I do turn the page

Gotta get my son
Working in the night
For him, for him, for him
A little guiding light

                    Alright.

Dailiness. Gratitude. Rest.

Sunlit Italy
     Wine
     Pasta

Take my son to work
Come home, rest in peace
Modern Istanbul
More than Ancient Greece

Time tick tocks
Sting and the Police
Death comes at the end
Agony. Release.

I just pass the time
        Silent Way
          Red Pine

In my solitude
     Sunlight
      Seattle!

Walking around the mall
    hope fear hope fear
             fatherhood!

...Guernica...
      Terror
Little Flower

Thai food for dinner
Solo. All alone.
Text my middle son
Little black cell phone

56 and falling
Movies in the night
Hope for the future
Sor Juana's mystic flight

                  Alright!

Another day
Slowly go
Virginia sun
Reno snow
Do my best
Never know
Qualyxian Quest
Yoko yo yo!

56 and falling
Call my oldest son
A little fearless sleep
A little Magic fun

         Day is Done.

Day by Day
    Slowly
  Patience

Another day
Safe drive home
          xie xie

Sunlit summer afternoon
           Virginia Tech
                   hope!

The conservatives are racists
See how they run
In my solitude
No need for American guns

Soft summer night
Carolina blue
Back to school again
Ever ancient, Ever new

Chaos. College. Q.

She lives on in the song
Pregnantly immortal
Thank you kindly, Bruce
Your music is a portal

Resistance for today
Resistance for tomorrow
Courage in the fright
Happiness in sorrow

               Hitch Hikin'!

Seattle to San Francisco
            Zen Center
               Silence

It's natural to die
I'll just fade away
Exoplanet sky
Silent is the Way

         xie xie

I've moved so many times
I keep ramblin' round
Dublin, dear Dublin
When Love Comes To Town

California Coast
Big blue Reno sky
Taipei 101
Aye! Aye! Aye!

Twilight comes again
Talk with my middle son
He was born in Asia
Near Taipei 101

I like many movies
Dead Poets, Galaxy Quest
Some good thing to do
Before I take my rest

                   Guess.

Will anything get through?
                 Seattle U.
                        72

Chicago winter snow
             Frodo
         Yo espero

Buddhamind in Bangkok
Taxis in the rain
Young sons sung
I ride the bullet train

Quiet Mother Asia
Santiago, Spain
It's true, so true, Your Highness
Life itself is pain.

Crossing the Baltic
Young sons sung
     Exoplanets!

Low level depression
Drags me down my days
California sun
San Francisco Bay

Washington D.C.
Lonely, lonely nights
Alex teaching in Tucson
