Nothing Changes. And Everything Changes.


dance in the rain.
feel the pain.
enjoy the comfort.
kiss the sun.

believe wholeheartedly.
try desperately.
move impatiently.
talk respectfully.
walk carefully.
sing loudly.
love passionately.
cry genuinely.
think deeply.
forgive quickly.
mend sincerely.

October


Another glimpse of momentary satisfaction
In the new city
Of ordinary pavement and fall leaves

Arms entangled and footsteps synched
Sleek perfection
Recanting encounters with seasons passed

New experiences surface the agenda
And the familiarity re-stitches
The existence

Taxi cabs and boarding rooms
Smell of classy desperation
Of reasoned expectations
And mustered feelings

A few hours recapture the essence
Of thoughts passed
And it’s a black and white still shot
Reduced to its entirety
In a roll of undeveloped film

That now sits high on the counter
Against the grain.
