Ditty for Blue

,

Hey Blue

Where have you been?

‘Been looking all round, round looking for you

Blue

Seems it harder these days

Have  trouble now tryin to find

A sign; a simple color of you.

‘Think it was easier in younger days.

Blue

‘Sure a lot of people would love to see ya.

They keep asking if you’ve been around

You’re on their mind, they say, “how has he been”?

I guess it’s been too long,

You probably thought your time had come and gone

I suppose that happens

When life quickens the plot does thicken

But hey,

Blue

We surely miss ya.

An American Thinks

I am an American… But I asked myself, What was I before (an American)? My thoughts stretch back, thinking of my spirit outside borders and time. So much labor is put on what it means to be that word. I asked myself, What am I meant to be after (an American)? Maybe my spirit follows […]

Skeleton

My thoughts scrape across the sky, like a scalpel on old bones. One that studies and probes.   There were once men who dreamt of flying Soaring among the hawks. They dreamt of starships, Flashing in the depths of undiscovered Space. They dreamt of exploring the ocean depths Discovering what lies so hidden.   All […]
