On A Bad Day I Can See Forever



After the day is done
I am still searching for the light
head tilting towards Orion
waiting on the inevitable conclusion



In the vortex of tornado thoughts
my vinegar blood pushes the heart to pound
fingers tapping keys, looking for a lost word
in a sea of incomplete

The peat moss of my recent poems
dampens the day in a hushed PROTECT

It's the silly-putty way of moving on
one foot to the left, one to the right.... of wrong
I am just a Slinky crashing down
the treadless stairs


Recently I came upon a clear thought
like winter it hung too heavy
I sat tight wishing it gone
waiting on the spring to spring me
into some other life where the air
is light, fresh, and clean

The Cardinals snap the berries
I wonder why they too have not gone South
I'm brimming to the rim with contradictions

Yesterday, I was quite contrary
There's no time today to explain

BESIDES:


It's far too late to change it anyway
