What can’t be said

Aloud

Will be wondered

Quietly

Until the moment appears

From the sky

That the right time

Has come

Tonight

But what is alright

Can be undone

With the winters night

My mind has come

Undone

A better way

Forward

Can’t look back

Or shouldn’t

So I have hope

That tomorrow

Brings

Better

Things

Great news from today

From green loghts

To sublime days

This sign

Welcomed as it is

Takes a smile

From my heart

And hope to give

The ruthless

Hopes

That bring up

My own

Yet

Pulling me down

Into the darkness

Of time

I have no regrets

I can’t whine

So I learn to understand

The complicated matters

That exist

Across the land

These times

Make my eyes wonder

From the bottom of the

Land

To understand

Light and darkness

The fringes

Of moments that exist

How the unequaled wonder

From the words

Of hope

And bringing in the

Now

My own eyes

Have no where to go

Worthless technologies

Infecting the sockets

They infest

So where do I roam

As the mind wanders

Alone

In a cafe

On Broadway

With no music

To attach to

The blatant days

Of adhering

To the fads

Of the moment

In the cafe

I sit

Alone

What hopes

Come

When the mind

Is completely

Wound up

And undone

The duress of the moment

That faces us

Take us

All that we have

The lines from my shirt

To the sea of the wild

To the starting point

From the turnpike

Turnstyle

Waves roll

And call out to the open

Air

A city awake

A city in despair

Chicago

On the lake of Michigan

I set my eyes

To be seen again
