A soft wind wraps around

My hand reaches across my face
I feel my beard if I let it grow it'll turn gray
I move my fingers up to my left temple
I can just feel my pulse

Living is easy it's a biological imperative
Living well that is a little harder.
Why am I complaining?  I'm not

Another Guthrie Generation

He wanders across the country

in search of Woody Guthrie

every back road a song for his mind.

I'm sure he'll work when he needs to

then try to strum away his blues—

finding his life one town at a time.

I won't mention the number

who think he's just a-bummin'

She's so ergonomic

Fits just like a glove

She’s so ergonomic

custom-made for love

She’s so ergonomic


Suits me to a tee


She’s so very ergonomic to me




She’s so analgesic


Cures what ails my mind


She’s so analgesic


Makes me feel just fine


She’s so

It was like a shield I never knew I had

I wore it like a coat and with my age it seemed to match-

I never knew it would just go away-

I never knew it would shatter.

but many things I thought would stay the same-

I dunno I guess it doesnt matter.

A solid sense of passing time

Yet immobilized Inside I am a lake of fire

I'm trapped in this never ending thresh hold

Of in and out to find it's only my breathe

My heart beating my hand feigning life

A hand so blurred by the wind

Only eyes

Our eyes are fire are alive with emotion

Like chains they hold all we'd ever need to say-

But lips make no connection to these words-

If I'm anything to this world I'm Lost.

Satin memories caress my empty dreams-

Wrapping scarlet ribbons around my eyes-

It seems as though you haven't left

You're still here at this ol' house

I've shed my symbols of grief and then some

But still there's no relief.

Looking down at the ground from this great big oak

I close my eyes It's only a sound: or some sick sort of joke

I heard

Whimsy twilight invades us now

can you feel it

underneath the moon's silver glow

Promise again you'll never go.

Dizzy fireflies dance among us

can you see them?

So near and so far away

I reach my out my hand to dance with them.

Hazy fumes of smog surround
