Six

Fragments from journal pages:

1.
Today I observed silence
as sound
and was truly blessed

2.
good blonde girl on a bed
sketching her portraits
of angelic faces

3.
Jimi and his wailing machine
screaming the work
of a man on his knees

4.
I felt your eyes heavy on me
while no one was looking--
not even God

5.
old english pew
seats the sum of many
hungry for divine truth

6.
old man cat
dreams his life away
on top my biggest pillow

7.
new wind rushed
over dormant tree limbs,
the birds are heading south

8.
"be a truthteller in a nation of hustlers and word mercenaries."

9.
"why do we kill all those christmas trees just to celebrate one birthday?"
-- charles bukowski


(sorry all these are rather obscure.. but they are what they are.)
