Poems
Mar 2015
The building of a fanfare
Was it yesterday or the day before
or today
was it the wind that blew away or
was it me?
Happiness
is what this is,
is what life's for and anything that's gone before
is wind that's blown away.
I have blessings, the dressed best blessings,
the past leaves me alone,
the future's what it's all about.
The unpinned eye sees so much more
than yesterday or the day before
I guess the wind blew that away and
blew through me into today.
If God lives in me
he forgives me,
though not biblical in any sense,
I have the sense to know that
I must in penance pay some
recompense.
A tooth for a tooth ain't that the truth
not sure about the eyes.
