Never envy for the work or worker
Never greed for gold or coin
Golden grass beneath my stalwart legs
Eyes wander in the sky
Greener lands never sway my gaze
Unambitious bar one objection
The priceless search for who i really am and what im meant to be

we're more than just a face behind the counter who says "can i help you please?"
and our vocabulary is not just limited to "do you want fries or extra cheese?"
we're mothers, fathers, daughters and sons
and we deserve just as much respect as anyone
we stand on our feet all day and many times all night
yet the low pay and lack of benefits we receive just does not seem right
we have bills too, we go to school and we take care of our families
yet many people think we're just unambitious and lack creativity
we're not asking for a lot we just want some benefits and a living wage
but it's disheartening that people can't seem to comprehend why we are outraged
so today we stand united, organized and ready to fight
for healthcare, benefits, a sustainable wage and basic workers rights
for we are more than just a face behind the counter
we're the fast food workers with a mission this day
standing strong, going long in solidarity
under the union banner of 32BJ

under the Sal tree
lies a meditation unambitious
a certain implausibility
of death and life and all auspicious
am i disciple - or more - or less
the mind thirsts a life to slake
proceeding forward - or to regress
then sleep and mindfully be awake

The oranges and pinks of the veiled sun,
Like a newly wed,
Shines,
On the golds and crimsons,
That peeps behind the defeated chlorophyll.
I wish the vain clouds wouldn't be as surreptitious.
I wonder, amazed,
If I were the waters that never flowed,
Unambitious, stagnant, constant,
Yet ever-growing, ever-receiving,
Imbibed with the glory of the colors that make me,
I would be at peace,
Believing, this is all that exists,
The beginning and end of the Earth,
And I am the bosom of it,
Cloaked and protected.

My years grow larger, faster
after the
age of twenty one, insurance
dropped
lower
quicker, even after my
fender
bender.
On that twenty first day
Twenty
two
two thousand and two, a year
unsuccessful
unambitious,
Mostly that is.
By the end
I gathered my priorities,
Became an independent king.
Met a girl
Elizabeth
Spanish
Latin queen.
Still to this day
she haunts my dreams.
Before me, she was
with a she
together, a pair of queens
I, her first guy.
cohabitation, compromise.
After dissolution,
our rugged eighteen months,
she left me
for her queen
this heartless sex fiend
Faithful to me till the end of
Two thousand
Three...
