Some of Today

to recover…

"you’re recovering?
I talked to you awhile back
and you were sick…"

yeah, what is with the
world today, huh?

sick all the time

in debt all the time
fret all the time

locked outta house and home

sip a humble martyr tea

outer space man outta space man mind
clank and feet shuffle

meditation session turns
into a writing session

to recover…

you still have a heart and blood flowing
through you, you’re still at this address and
have the same phone number
from like a year ago

walk around just one block to
catch your bearings
get some of that daytime light

almost back
in fighting condition again
I’m feeling so good—
I tell myself

and so WHO WANTS A FIGHT?

surprises are
in the air

love is in the air…

surprise is somewhere in there

love is… hiding in the air

love is a Duck shot shot down out of the air

surprise dead   dead      dead            dead      ducks
