Poems
May 2015
what.... nothing philosophical to say?
has the meaning been found
or found not to be findable?
see what can be done with words
that thought that those metaphors
the things we use to signal something else
are the basis for how we see ourselves
start with some simple rules
build a reality whole cloth
our own personal Genesis
I see you sleeping there
can compare you to a million things
yet not one of them is you
not really, in a real way
if that can even be defined
where I run up against the edge
looking for a sign, something like
the moon rising out at sea
right here, and still so far away
“O, what a world of unseen visions and heard silences,
this insubstantial country of the mind!
