What wonders
Come today
That were not
Understood
Or hoped for
Bring a new year
And I will jump in
It
Right Now
What wonders
Come today
That were not
Understood
Or hoped for
Bring a new year
And I will jump in
It
Right Now
A displacement of time
Is a whole new
Idea of recollection
I read in the pages of The New York Times
A nostalgic resurrection
Of the old feelings of joy
And pretending nice
Of a hope for a future
Without the pain
Of ill willed advice
Up and arms
Up and down
So the workout goes
The ever deterent
Of exercise glows
Filling up the measure
Of what the days
Expectations
Will be
It’s starts with a statement
A conclusion
Of some drastic dillusions
That results
In a unique situation
Of free man
Amongst a free natuon
It’s the nature
Of indecency
Of last minute
Clemency
A snowball
In the hand
Aiming at a man
Who throws
Two my way
I aim and let go
I duck below
Did I hit him
I will never know
Seditious
Attempts
At reason
With no concern
For humanity
Or partiality
Rather for just
One’s self
That is the focus of
Just the current
Status
Of
Us
I show up
But late
Let’s get one thing straight
No words matter
In a great deflate
Deflate and prosper
“You’re fired”
But I already walked
From your offer
So here comes the New Year
The new changes
Bring on the corruption cases
Watch the fires blazin’
En garde!
En garde!
Off goes 2016
A year of changes
Losses
Rearranging
A year of new
Shuffling out the old
Somehow I reflect on my own words
I have written
Some I left out in the cold
New words will come with time
Time to behold
A cascading wind
Falls hard on our shoulders
Unknown to me
While the years make me older
Outlived truths
Falsities of our youth
Holding the ropes between
Me and you
The flip side of this situation
Is to tell you with little procrastination
That I hold you dear
My dear
We hold strong together
Under uncertain weather
Under skies grey or blue
I hold on to you
The barges float along Lake Michigan
Full of metals heavy and rusted
As the sun sets up the day
The water subdued
What natures made
We undue
The smokey waves of Ogden Dunes
On the horizon set
Cast iron red eaves
Made with crashing steam
It’s a night in the lake of industry
Set in a land of
Beautiful infamy
