What’s the one luxury you can’t live without?
One luxury that I’ve been forced to live without, but still can’t seem to live without, is love.
Grey-green
Brazen
Giant of the decades
Liberated
My heart!
My heart, again
Now, broken
And the decades
The decades, green
Now, grey
Would sunrise rush
To us — help the hero within
Here, we, with sight
Need
Still a glimmer, to see
This horizon, this friend

Ask too many questions
Think too many thoughts
See what you don’t see, but want to
Do too many oughts
Now, if grit and faith were gold
A sultan I’d outspend
For all the “oughtn’t haves” I did
I have become truth’s friend

Total and true
The moment and its love for life
Anchored and adorned
The breath with its friend, the flower
I wish you away
The Valentine’s Day
50 pounding headaches ago
I
Sanely spoke
I
Tread purposefully
I
Smiled, generally
Hope was automatic
The mirror and I, friends
I walked free of you then
Spring forward to Saturday
This happy day
Rearview mirrors ripped away
Now comes Springtime
Again
I cheer weird
Arms, akimbo
Eyes, alight
Crazy-vocal vocal chords
People shush me
Wish to hush me
But they know who’s the go-to
When they wish for a true-blue friend
They know who to see
When, at the bottom of the deep blue sea
They need to believe again
Themselves, befriend
Inhibition-free, unapologetically
Cheerleader me
Wherever is my friend
What if I befriended time
Then took its outstretched hand
Separation was no more
Despite life’s shifting sand
Daytime, nighttime were as one
Without the fear of loss
Silver seconds, yearnless years
And age no bridge to cross
I beckon thee to join with me
In unrelenting drive
To put away some thought of death
To embrace what’s alive
Each minute is a golden hour
Each breath a pulsar day
When time gives us its outstretched hand
We must not look away
Proceed out of Winter
