Back down Main Highway
To work on Art
To work at the Art Gallery
To work on writing
To work on printing
To work on that one piece that is almost done
Journey to the end of town
Home.
Work on Love
Work on dinner
Work on Zen
Journey to the strip mall
Work behind the bar
Serve food, pour beer & humor the needy
Work on multi tasking
Realize more needs
Journey to bed
Contemplate breath
Work to be in the gap
Work to leave work behind
Work to not scratch 20 mosquito bites
Work to be a calm
To be in stillness
To expand stillness
To not smoke a joint to attain stillness
To not smoke a joint?
Why?
The headline question is, Why?
If mind makes matter, replace why with is?
Look at what you have created, at work on your journey to be!
Talk to self through paper to converse with one’s own mystery, which is
The mind and birth of thought as we
Work through the days
Stampede to the next birthday just so you can exhale
Remember the exhale as you accelerate
The sweet release you give to self when palms open
And when palms open to extend fingers
This is the stuff magic is made of –
Watch it disappear when you are not looking.
As matter turns to frequency
The revelation?
None of that shit matters.
Drop Letters Don’t Wishing Wells

Going through old files, I found this sketch from when I was once an art model. I have no idea who charcoaled the lines of this portrait, but I used it (when I used to have photoshop) and imposed one of my poems upon it. A poem that was never going to be anything more than a few floating lines.
