today is not the day
he is a big boy
the half moon
deep within the flavor
the poppies are now
you can learn a lot
if you stopped to think about it
this morning there is no wind
years ago
i like notebooks
mid august
my thoughts are a pack
when you live with cancer
memories of pain
the gods in the mind virus lab
holes
bigfoot is hanging around
speed talking
twin tiny spotted fawns
i awake as the eastern sky
i am walking across a vast plain
i am lost in the canyon lands
last night
we are riven
wabi sabi
seek not the holy grail
this morning there were four poppies
my compass swings
the constant high frequency noise
today is still
the only sound
the rock and the roll
tomorrow never comes
we live in a house
i watch you
where are you now Dr. Gonzo
i can see the edge of it now
i used to think there are two of me
alcoholism is a disease
a rainy day in Spain
it is this fountain pen
i am the beauty and the beast
we gather around our fires
winter is slow to release her hold
the doorman stands
don’t do that
requerdos
soon there will be robins
life has a new tone
i speak with people
i closed my eyes
of all the earth’s creatures
off our port beam
i dreamed an old friend
they have stolen a kill
two paper plate angels
i cannot do the manly things now
my favorite knives have pen blades
saint francis wears a snow cap
the cold winter rains came
i have coffee at my elbow
belle the cat
gods change
understanding someone
“science,” he said
if i could time travel
it is here
while everyone sleeps
drinking strong morning coffee
my new cancer pills
my hair is returning
last year’s lambs ears
in the morning sun
in the falling snow
someone shoveled
the puddles are small
i didn’t know
fog
all paths lead nowhere
on the wall hang many things
another strange and twisted city
leaning hard
we would drop acid
grandfather was building a boat
the monster came at night
fatigue wraps me in a pall
it is somehow another day
how many death bed confessions
it is somehow another day
having brushed handfuls
i sit in my chair
one hot summer day
moving water
