relaxing on vacation
in Houston, TX
this morning
we were almost sideswiped
on the road in a
major way
we were
jolted to
say the least
lunched and
shopped around
came back and
rested with stomach
aches and
Millennium on
the boxset
Seaguy 3
laptop postings in
a chair
overhead fan twirls
5 remote controls
in living room
4 year-old clark’s
spiderman puzzle solved
told him spiderman
is a domestic well-behaved
fellow who picks up
around the house
but still
curses a little bit
saying things like
‘holy hell’
when things go…
well
bought a tony hawk t-shirt
and new wallet
took from old wallet
junk and trashed it
too many cards and junk
bloat the new one
it ain’t cash
the plane turns
out to be safer than
the ground
though I don’t
appreciate take-offs
none too much
or turbulence
flying a plane
is faith in God
I’m back
on the ranch
stayed back for
stomach reseting
and some alone time
it’s just in
my constitution
like to write
wacked out sentences
realize mostly I
ask people questions
to see where they’re coming
from and to learn something new
I’m a curious young man
in a sea of people all around
some very friendly and willing to talk
some with pad locks
TV here is fantastic
I will take pictures
shall I move?
job to job
city to city
disrupt the marital balance of things?
merge of two ideas?
split ideas like atoms
lean back in
a chair
apathetic sigh
flush face
turn yellow
reveal weakness in
just movement of bodily hinges?
slowness or hurried?
I want to vacation till
the next car accident or
plane crash
this work thing is
so lame
but now
is not the time to cry
