More Than

More than

Or less

Than

Even when

The path is uncertain

The question is asked

What will become of me

Noisy Aback

In the back of the room

Comes a noise

Uncertain origins

On a dark night

In the house alone

I crawl in close

I grab my phone

I heard

That there will be changes

But when and where

Are yet to be told

Behold

The hope

I have

Dial Tone

Dial tone

Hits me

With a nostalgic

Twist

Of summer

Afternoons

Waiting for a summer’s kiss

Try again

When it was not

What was expected

No correct answers

So go ahead

Cool Conversations

Cool conversations

Happen over coffee

In the moment

Focused

On reality

Mine has changed

Recently

But nothing

We can’t deal with

Boundary Scene

Starting to see

The boundary scene

Where and what will

Happen

To my life

Over the next year

My hopes

Fears

All playing

Out

In real time

Title me

From the free

Words

Of infinite possibility

The poem

Needs a name

Of which

Is now unknown

But I will attempt

To give the poem

One

Whirl Steps

Quick steps taken

In sequence

Of one another

While I wait out the direction

Slow the steps

Now with more intention

From here I

Go
