pulled toward the water

& other unreasonable lines of reason

i am sick / the germ settles in the lungs
heavy / a mean germ . smoking is not going to help

but the craving / oh the craving

patches / i bought a pack of patches
& i'm going to put one on / / i don't
think i can handle a chest cold right now

lungs are weak


smoke another joint / i say / smoke another fattie
& see how that makes you feel??? see///


it's grand aint it


she fidgets / i fidget / rub my head my eyes my face
come on just one more smoke


ah / death wish


naw /

well may be















these damp january days don't let up
the snow melts with wild abandon
objects begin to appear in the yard

don't be fooled tho / the lawn is still covered
with snow / & more will come / this is the lull
before the winter / / after all it's only january



finally the sun comes up
over top silver king mountain

6 weeks since winter solstice
almost 12 weeks since the sun sat atop
silver king

but now / @ 1 pm in the after noon
low / behold / rays of sunlight
fill the kitchen window


the dark days filter away
ah here we are / back on this side of the sun again
funny how we turn up here / once a year / weather
we like it or not / whether the earth turns to season
or not / we have no say / the forces of the universe
are just too large to argue with



& again


thots turn to the one she loves
enigma


angel
walking through the masses in search of love, if I fall down will you be
lying there?




january / dark month gets a bit lighter
not much / stale twilight @ 4:45
i always miss you @ dusk /
if i could be near you @ any time /
it would be when day becomes night
