Light into Dark

When we can see light into dark,
we travel the tale into the unknown and beyond.
We stop and ponder moments,
and time behaves as we see it, coordinated visions.
And not for us to tell
our characters who wait, and wait until the traffic clears again.
The sound is quiet, vague and peace spreads to the world outside.

Fire Island

There is an ocean at the edge of the shore.
There is an island in the middle of the sea.
There is an unanswered know at the door.
And a message in the sand that you may never read.

Man of the Year

MOY3A_250

Upon reading the man of the year’s blast to kindness,

the idiot’s version of the photograph,

I grasp at the importance of things.

The pages ,the prayers, the interest in the infomercial…

reluctantly seeking the inconclusive nature of oddballs.

We banter, we cry as the crowd cheers on.

Silently we await the choices and the muse.

Silently we wait, as if they will ever come.
