Believe it or not:
Contrary to popular belief,
Love does not conquer all.
As a matter of fact.
It’s an obstacle.
Whatever love you can get and give,
Whatever happiness you can filch or provide,
Every temporary moment of grace,
Whatever Works.
Packin the car, headed for the city.
But one last stop, it’ll make the day sweeter.
There was fog on the windows,
leaves in the streets,
And the drive seemed quicker,
much more than last time.
There she stands. Waiting.
Ain’t it funny I’m doing the same thing?
Waiting once again,
For the same thing as always.
Anyway, to save from the sappy poetic ending;
I got some...

The driveway was flooded with mud. water. stones.
It’s quiet. I can hear the earth.
The spring peepers are sounding.
I can feel the cold muck surround my boot.
Walking past the pond i hear the frogs jump in fear.
for what they hear is different than I.
I hear beauty. I see it. And I feel it in the wind.
The geese flee when I pull the boat from the dead catails
and snakes slither...
What should I do?
I’m confused.
Sometimes, only sometimes, the gods smile upon...
This is one of those times

and goin down to the waterfront looking for hipsters
making cheese bread in the oven.

Dinner at Santosorinos

Can’t wait.
For those of you that think my posts have been a little filthy, a little dirty, perhaps a little randy…
I apologize because its about to get worse.
Woman might not get much from this. And I’m sorry.
I know I don’t speak for a lot of people, but I know for some, this might hold true. You know who you are. Were bros. And I’m talking to men in this. Although women might get...
When she doesn’t want you, you can’t be a man. If you’re blind to reason, you might be strong. But true love is stronger.
While the huge seafoam of Isla Negra,
the blue salt, the sun in the waves splash over,
It comes and it leaves, balancing its straight pale flight
as if it slid on invisible wires:
Its elegant dance, its thirsty waist,
Through an orange-and-gasoline rainbow
it hunts, like an airplane in the grasses;
it flies with a hint of a spike; It disappears;
While you come out of the sea
and return...
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I Can,
and Wisdom to know the difference.
