the loose end of poetry

Rossiny

Waiting for time
To come to its end
Looking for wisdom
To show –
Like a friend.

Paris, France – March, 2023

White Hall Lane

Bracing for the moment
My heart breaks free to see
A sighting effervescent
Present joy –
Of being me.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – London, England – February, 2023

TOT VS. WHU
2-Nil

Bird the Word

Pushing through the powder
Pulling through the pain
We move in strange directions –
To solve –
For how we gain.

Draper, UT – January, 2023

Ka’elepulu Canal

Imagine –
Being present,
In the past
Watching the arc,
Of beginning
The flavor and aroma of earthly adolescence
In a thunder of sound –
Crashing through – to the now.

Kailua, Hawaii – December 12, 2022

Alameda Central

Dangerous feeling
Scandalous stride
Slipping so close
To a violence –
Fueled pride.

Cuauhtemoc, MX – November, 2022

The Preserve

Staring through a vision
Moving with the tide
We ache for intervention
In the moments –
We mean to hide.

Mystic, CT – October, 2022

Powder Gate Tower

Vying reflections
Turn back to see
The moving inflections
Of the human –
In me.

Prague, Czech Republic – October, 2022

Coyoacan

I want to meet the maker
Who made the we in me
The one who sees the vision
Of a soul with the heart –
To be free.

Azteca Stadium, Mexico City, MX – September, 2022

Catawba Island

Shaking off
My insulate inner
I see the me,
From the side
Of a sinner,
Rushing to be
Like Jenny, the winner.

Put-In-Bay, Ohio – August, 2022

Bacchus

Shadowing yourself
Through a motion
Of mine –

Restricts your belief
Through its notion –
Of time.

Lac Leamy, Gatineau, Quebec – August, 2022
