here in perfect silence
this pretty glimpse of memory
now fading
now gone
here in blessed focus
this iron noose of world remains
pulls me
brings me back

path
the spiral
down the spiral
fading into everything
dancing in the light
harvesting the spiral
spinning doom
just say goodnight
tell me everything’s alright
kiss me goodnight
I’m through with the world
tonight
being counted and proud
so I’m a living mass
relax
I’ve just chosen
my own rosery
down with the ground
without making sound
delved into depths
of a summer sunset
knowing my own role
runing my own show
not at six o’clock
when we get
our old news and we
tie our own shoes and we
know it’s all shame
playing fair games
until we win
solitude
my path seems to be that of isolation
just like every one else’s
except with no companion
no community
I simply do not attempt
to hide from this path
to escape this isolation
this triple-sided destiny
of the self, the others, the world
I embrace the loneliness
and walk alone in peace
almost 7
I am a six watching eight
just a step far from overcoming
trapped by fate’s harsh turn
tell me what’s wrong with you
just a fall away from seven
shy a hair of perfection
a six
watching eight
questions
what will be my epitaph
where should we retire
where will all my money go when I die off
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
do I really like my job
is this car big enough
would we happier if we had one more child
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
is this the career for me
could I go back to school
can this woman make me a happy man
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
where will I settle down
when will I find a job
is this degree I’ve got really worth a damn
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
am I being immature
is sex all that I’m looking for
how no one is understanding me
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
should I stay in classrooms
will I ask her out tonight
will I get that part-time work this summer
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
where shall I say life’s going
what should I be living for
is there a god who’s watching out for me
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
where can I sleep tonight
what will I eat tonight
where can I wash my face and change my socks
a nudge toward the end
tickle me with fate
and move me to forward motion
track my path with eyes unshaded
and bring me home again
