transgressions 1

been wondering around,
snooping my nose where it doesn't belong
and it is not afraid. In religion

answers don't fit questions all the time,
in my mind, and in the history of modern crimes,
lies replace what truth finds in any of them, if necessary.

Sound religion seeks peace within
heart, soul, nature, congregation, universe,
faithful energy is put to others, life, harmony

but my transgressions render me doubtful
of the damned, prone to stray, delay, then pray
on Doom’s Day.

Karma kicks me into understanding; leaves me dizzy
with fear of retribution. Fear is fundamental
in any belief system.

Wondering has me dizzy
and still haven't found my way
out of the maze, craze, daze

of religious fervor indoctrinated
in my youth—eyes open wide, you decide
they said, knowing not what they meant

or started or bent within me. A searchlight
in the lighthouse, I have become,
watching every ship that passes, wondering
if it’s the one.

...good reading material opens mind to new patterns of thought alternate rationals fresh ideas and still I thirst one book after another and my desire only grows with each page thirst to read thirst to ink thoughts into pages of my own relfection allow the pages I read to reflect on my life find their purpose in my life reason for my eyes to meet their finely printed ink something for me to ponder as I turn the page to read on and upon reflection of the reading my soul will spill into poems on pages I call my own knowing it is a culmination of all those I have read as much as it is mine...

With that pick-up line
I thought you were ironic.
No, you're an asshole.

1. I contact her first. Our email banter tastes good. We decide to meet.
2. When I first see her, Her beauty tears me in two. She's out of my league.
3. She says, "Let's be friends," And I am just dumb enough To say, "Friends... sounds good."
4. I'm happy I did. As a friend, for the better, She has changed my life.

Twilight Traveler (inspired by/for JS)
08/28/2002 11:11 p.m.

mourning dew trickles between limbs
of a weeping willow
rooted in Salinger soil, swooning
the breath of a slow Ryan Adams breeze

word crumbs trickle into a trail
of poems from deep in the forest
the trail leads to a clearing
where the soul can rest, nap
upon the horizon of a long day gone by

kick boots off, stay awhile,
until the full moon of opportunity shines
her soft glow between your trestles
and lures you into tomorrow…

...ur day will come...

Triste

(for a friend)

tree of tears
ur sap leaves me gasping for words
ur leaves ruffled,
mumbling amongst themselves

limbs reach to hug the bleeding bark
experiences echo in circles
from the inside out,

tell stories to the birds, the sun
will dance between ur leaves
once again,
and lush u will ever be
aside the waters of love...
