fringe selvedges

Moving through the smoke
My mind,
Just seeks to wind

Growing ever tighter
Are thoughts,
Left undefined.

East Rutherford, NJ – June 2017

Right where it starts
Back where it ends
The truth is behind me
Always trying,
To amend.

Cancun, MX – June, 2017

Waking for the evening
My soul creates a stir
Rumbling into motion
Greased by emotion
To reach the moment,
Of existential
Devotion.

Milton Point, NY – June 2017

I turn around
To see
What’s real

To feel
A present
Pressured, surreal

I hear the words
Of a now
Appeal

In a delivered
Cloaked
Attempted, conceal.

Grand Rapids, MI – May 2017

Crashing through a vision
Is a now
That screams from shame

It breaks its fragile balance
Through a vow
That birthed from pain.

Maniwaki, QC – May 2017

The farther I see
The nearer I’ll be
To find a soul,
In the essence
Of me.

Miami, FL – May 2017

I see the raging currents
Riding strong
Upon a wave
Raging and revolting
Breaking bonds
Of a thought as slave.

Stone Barn, Tarrytown, NY – April 2017

Looking on out
From inside my mind
I see, what I fear
In the ghost
From behind.

Charlotte, NC – April, 2017

Shaking the outside
From a break
In my being
Takes,
From my inside
The fake
That’s unseen.

Manhattan, NY – March 2017

I can’t clean my mind
I can’t clear my sight
But have vision, through the fog
To wake –
My inner fight.

Shenzhen, China – March 2017
