my friend’s dear friend
now we meet a year later
and we’ve a few words
an embrace to greet
an embrace to part
nothing comes to mind to bind
and here am I alone again

and all I could do was scream
they went off into the bush
chasing some critter
cornering something in the fen

at the top of my lungs
as time and time went running
karma biting
and all I could do
was holler screeching
and of course they’d never come

middle of the night poem
I don’t know how much longer is left
we’ll probably go together
remnants slipping into oblivion
walking down the meadow path
I stumbled on oh I forget
is a lea a meadow?
down by the pond
there are flowers left in remembrance

my little untitled
my little ephemera
built for one summer
a love stuck in could be
then faded and gone
hope choked in the flux of creation

now back in the dawn
dusk for my pet
my poor pony
and all my proud dreams
reduced to baloney
ephemera’s yesterday
hope is tomorrow
with promise of happiness
and promise of [...]
