Not For Nothing
Most eyes are looking for other eyes.

Love Your Disease
*****
Winter solstice – rain sleeping in the clouds.
*****
The large majority of the time, we are just comparing the size of our idiocies.
*****
So so-so!
*****
Where do you hide in an empty room?
*****
There’s too much of everything.
*****
The planet grows bluer.
*****
I’ve got more dark corners than a circle in the night.

as humble as a toothbrush
as humble as
*****
Skindrinking the breeze…
*****
Wind-grabbed / star-washed / drizzle-rinsed / night-dried

If you want to laugh, look at the back of your knees.
*****
The big dream is smaller than us.
*****
…clouds, moods…
*****
The immense desire to be the water itself – where the clear ocean rests in warm pools over ancient rocks.
*****
I’d climb out of this hole, but I can’t feel the sides.
*****
Every dream with a soundtrack!
*****
I’m still afraid, after all this time, to write that list of the words I overuse.
*****
Killing the spider, you become more ugly than the spider is.
*****
Now noting knowing nothing.
*****
i am where i be
i be where i am
*****
Couldn’t see the face for the eyes…
*****
There’s nothing above loving.
*****
Just before you die you will suddenly be very young.
*****
I take your point until it stops me.
