Tangential

Tangential life should be the aim

Achieving a straight steady flow

Navigating the ups and downs

Generating a steady line

Evolving into mindful states

Never asleep, never over excited

Transcendental calmness

Infused within your state of being

Ascending to and even flow

Level not up, down but balanced.

The Other Half of the Poem, After Dilly Dally

Taking a stroll, silently tip-toe
Talking to strangers, tangential existence
Strangled for talk, struggled to speak
Straight for the taking, tangible change
Take a short cut, time stands still
Transformed the scenery, terraformed set
Shouts from the tomb, post-existential speech
Scanning the transcript, searching for truth

Love Philosophy

Early morning twilight rain
lasting an hour

a snapping  of pictures
here and there-
the moon vibrates

no wave tides
away, the watch
hurries to some times

water is cool and hot-
woo, woo, woo
a cuckoo shouts

to thes things
partial glee in bliss and butter
laughing and flourishing in joy

may be akin
to an aestethic tangential
angle of apples?.

Before I Sally Off

Before I Sally Off

	Lost in Chicago

State and Madison. 
Saturday, high noon. 
Everyone and me.

Surrounded, I give up. 
Against the curb, 
the sea foams up

and in the distance
white birds soar, 
black apostrophes

cleaver split 
but still tangential,
rising, falling.

The light goes green.
Before I sally off 
I look down and there

against the curb,
great white waters bowl
and people drown.
