You can say what you want
on this and that
about the one and done philosophy
I can do it all
and still survive the day
the words never stop
I have to push them aside
add butter or pepper
while you feed the geese
on park benches
contemplating loneliness
ping pong love affairs
satisfaction never guaranteed
long lovely ladies
await you
I will watch you
from the best
seat in Central Park
with lost hope
and empty cigarette packs
it all means nothing
in the end
darkness calls my nickname
pulls out dust
from my pockets
sails across St. Lawrence river
excites me with dirty words
and secret promises
of unknown reasons
we still have faith
in silence and poetry.
Faith
In nothing but loneliness
a place only writers
visit
and succumb
to their Voices.
You kept me company
I thank you
for that
and so much more
I could never tell you
as I close my eyes
to dream
of you.
I have felt this…you’ve expressed it powerfully

You have gone inside my head with this piece Chrissy and cleared the cobwebs off my mental vanity mirror. Thank you for the thoughts I couldn’t hit upon for myself.
