The Theory of Positivism
"The Theory of Positivism"

Sailor's QuandaryShall I do penance for my hasty words,
or poise myself on this quaint narrow quay
to smell the salty perfume of the sea,
on platinum ship sail so far away?
I quiver with trepidation and dread.

I write another poem or two
Day after day and night after night
It seems that I’m compelled to write
Intrusions escaping through my hands

Called home my nomadic heart yearns to unpack scattered shadows,
Ornaments of new year snowstorms and souvenirs of summer places,
Mirrors found in attic reflections - hallmarks of nostalgia,
Image refractions of mirages battered milestones...
