the city breeze strokes my face
and reminds me it's good to be here,
right here...alive and well enough
to jot down my fleeting thoughts,
that touch me much the same way
as the warm air, notions accompanied
by a chorus of birds, and my mind
takes flight into the upper regions
of a gray, blue, and white painting hovering
above me
my book however is motionless
sitting there on the patio table
waiting to to be fondled I imagine
though I'm not sure what would make me
think that, I guess I'd like to believe
we have this symbiotic attraction for one another....
meanwhile I write my thoughts as the come to me
hoping that I'm thinking poetically.....
masterfully
but braced for the fact when I read it all back
it may be merely drivel, just drooling nonsense
rolling down the chin of an old man
sitting outside nursing a warm Pilsner...
waiting to be electrified a bit, but there are no
storm clouds, or fallen wires on the ground,
no its just another afternoon daydream
of something more, something authentic,
something worthy and beautiful enough
to talk about
something
Re: something
our lives are mostly made of these unremarkable moments in time
moments of being, of reflection
in which we're just animals basking in the sun
breathing
twitching our ears or our flanks whenever a fly lands
I think it's prayer of the most primal kind
to be alive
and to know it

reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
