...so maybe you're right. perhaps
the truth is what matters most.

and maybe you can explain
why the truth most often
angers

or dismays.

in life,
the things that are wrong
are never understood for long. and the things that are right
never last as long as we expect.

life
as we know it
is not only changing.

it
has
changed.

"go to hell"
someone said to me
the other day.

and i couldn't help but wonder
if they were already there.

...i think that one of my problems
is that i've always wanted to be a cat. i don't even need
to be a pure bred
or anything dramatic like that.

there's a lot going on right now. in
my life
and in this big blue world.

it might make sense
to pray now and then...and
bloom.

the way we're meant to bloom...because someone
out there needs us
in the middle of the night.

the winds
of winter show no mercy. and
the breezes of this retreating summer
show no sign of return.

sometimes
you're alone for longer than you can remember. sometimes
you're alone because you think you want to be.

but then you remember
that the wheel is bound to turn soon.

and you sip your drink
with renewed confidence. the smoke
drifts around you,

and suddenly you realize that
everything is OK again.

...now i know: as i wander through the pathways
of life,
i'll walk a little slower. look a little deeper.

and watch my girls
grow
as i age...

and wonder now and then how it may have been different,

knowing it couldn't
have ever been
any other way.

...so am i
as i fade like an old cartoon
playing upon a faded television
in a fading,
fighting,
struggling universe
of nature
turning against itself, simply
because
that's the only way it can ever be.

...so after marta cut my hair tonight
she said,
"i need a drink"

i walked to the liquor store:
one bottle of jack
one bottle of absolute
two bottles of barefoot chardonnay

for some reason
i was thinking of life and death.

and how we're all so simply

ALIVE.

that most anything, no matter where

will solve itself.
