Watery (Art) 2008 with Decisive Moments (Verse) 2009

 

Decisive Moments

I am listening.

When I can do

nothing else

I can at least listen.

I feel detached floating,

I listen to the wind howling

and the fiery leaves it scatters.

I listen to the spring water

rushing through the boulders

cooling the air at the bridge.

I listen to that all familiar voice

to hear how

what I am thinking

sounds like from the other side

of my head

I can not explain the way

my mind feels going through

the motions.

When I can do nothing else

I can at least listen.

I feel detached floating,

not that feel good ease

float, more that suspended

sensory deprivation

could freak out float.

Decisive moments.
