We didn’t stick to the old script
And were gladly amazed
And rarely unfazed
Hitting strange towns though some were skipped

We started from Thatsnot, OK
Which was more or less ok
But then...

Pet Poems, First Dog, Blake

No matter, of course, how many times I asked,
The answer came, “No!”  Thus,
At age 9, at the start of summer, I searched
Our not especially well-kept house and yard
For every scrap...

 and I saw a zebra

A most wondrous night

Many wonder where Santa

Goes first on his flight

 

It’s been the same

For so many long years

It’s not where you think

It’s a place filled with tears

Right here and there
I never wanted to be alive
This living thing traps my emotions
Turning them into devotion
I can never tell
If this is really what I planned for
Or something that everyone wants out of me
Expectations hourly...

The concert Band 
A work of reeds, air, and hands 
Reading sheet music isn’t easy
And our uniforms are anti-sleazy
All instruments must be in tune and time
Otherwise we sound like a broken chime

The flutes sound sweet...

Weary and lonesome
I wandered around to search for my Lord.
I was, however, unable to find the Lord
neither amongst mannequins in the busiest pedestrian traffic,
nor the amidst of majestic cathedral surrounded by the windows 
with sacred...

You... the fire of mystery
Like a text without an audience
Like a transcript of a dream

Like a fantasy full of illusions
Like an undisturbed wave
Like running away...to a fantasy
You are...

The elves were excited, they couldn’t wait,
they were almost done loading Santa’s big sleigh,
Christmas Eve was indeed, their busiest day.

They stood on the runway waving goodbye,
watching reindeer guide...

When you open eyes 
you have seen
the wonderful world
as one consistent and condensed  projection of reality
with your  dear friends, family, relatives,

Amidst the heavy crowd,
I was the only one who could
discern clearly the adorned God;

I don’t think this rushed market ever knows vacation.
Even vehicles walk through that crowd.
Flowers at a low cost are buy-able at noon, but you should be early to buy fresh flowers.

Sometimes it’s hard
being a poet
Writing your lines
on the busiest day
Spilling your thoughts
on the page as you know it
Even those days

when they come in...
