six forty-four am

and i've knocked over

my beer

and i blame it

on not having

you near

- a "poem"

i think, perhaps. in youth. i waited for god. a god ? i expected god. you know, the stories. the miracles. the "for god so loved the world."

and yet somehow, the world. it burns, and burns. and burns. and burnt.

i tried to listen. i think. so much silence. and so, so much noise. unbearable. but never a god.

and yet. somehow. one never leaves it behind. it's latin america after all. so it's god and god. and god.

and still. my small voice. a prayer.

and never god

i swoon

beneath a bright moon

and, perhaps soon

well, perhaps soon

#poem

violet-reds

purple-blues

in shade of trees

sometimes i

yet, mostly you

attract the bees

#poem

in times of need

i've been

mostly writing poems

about trees

and molotov co-

well, mostly leaves

and petals

quite uselessly

- molotov cocktails

- a "poem"

#poem

restless trees shiver

in the breeze

see how they reach

reaching

for me

#poem

i'm not sure

how long we'll be around

but have you seen

the green of those trees

the light on those leaves

the laughter

laughter when we breathe

-a "poem"

#poem

you are hope

hibiscus flower

hummingbird and

honey bee

you disappear

in evening spring

dusk and

final freeze

#poem

tree

of brand new leaves

in the breeze

waving at me

- a "poem"

#poem

i didn't know, what to do . at the end of the world . so i watered some house plants . took a few swigs myself . if i'm being honest. are we honest now ? and that made the stars . not seem farther . i felt like a tree in spring. without it's leaves .

#poem

we saved the world today

well, you saved the world

while i was walking by

and i caught your smile

at my shy wave

well, you saved the world

today

#poem

oh fuck

i just saw the photos

of my ex-girlfriend

she's happy

and i'm shit

- a poem

#poem

out in the shade of a tree

where so much begins

and everything ends

i dug my feet down

gnarled and rooted

down, among the happiest

creatures of earth

-

and i

i was the branches, twigs and the leaves

grasping and reaching, out in the breeze

searching, oh searching

for the heart of a tree

#poem

i'm having a drink or two. planting petunias ,

and i'm not sure. i'm kind enough

- "spring"

#poem

she's a boat full of flowers

well. she's the flowers

the red, yellow

yellow, orange

well. she's the flowers

#poem

people in power. choosing people in power. but it's ok. it's the way,

it's always been done.

will he keep his hands to himself?

keep your laws to yourself

-fragment

#poem

have you seen the way

these leaves , are falling ?
