I strive for simple life and simpler deeds,
Cut down on needs,
And minimize the multiples of me,
And wriggle free
Of whirligig complexity.

how i miss
the dark calm
of our hideout
where we would
share our secrets
and feel safe

time stood still
in our cocoon
where life seemed

of the fragile flesh
of the roaming mind

I Pick My Nose

Quantum physics
Astro-physics
Go to work
pay my bills

"K' David too had ills."
So my simple son asks:
And my simpler reply:
"Whatever they teach you in school
...so will be your sigh."

A world between wars, longing to be in its prime.
