Full Moon Corona ~ Tuesday, March 3, 2026

Full Moon Corona

From the gut, visceral, to expel from the bowels, the illness, the sickness

unwittingly, people enjoy to share their pain and trauma with others

lift my body with wings, wishful thinking, angel flies too close to the sun

let me down easy, please, God bless you, if I sneeze, no sniffles, no weakness

Mom plans to die, a trip to Cali, Little Bird, no fun to say goodbye

over the moon with joy, I cannot remember the last time, she gathers

old threads of pretty yarn, my girlfriend will not come, my brother is no fun

no fun to be alone on a two-day train ride to say goodbye for good

Cut the silver lining from around the dark clouds to weave into the sky

objectively, my bad, accountability, so sad about the end

remember the last time, I ran the marathon, Surf City, my hometown

obsessive compulsive, losing my train of thought, Amtrak around the bend

no fun to be alone, to travel the country, would I not rather drown

ask me what I would miss, running until I die, the smell of the redwood

Button Bakery, Evanston ~ Monday, December 8, 2025

Nederland B outon Ivana at the bakery, her eyes very blue, sparkle the lilt in her voice as tall as a small tree, a sapling grows not hard to look at, easy on the spies as they detect a neo-Skokie troll at the bakery, I have little choice too many allergies, so what I chose the Kalamata olive loaf, each week holidays excepted, sliced never whole expectations run high, mistakes once made become behaviors unless made correct arcane knowledge shut up in my chest, paid kindness by a tall, Dutch woman, protect elegance and beauty, am I a freak restart, press the button, I am too old yes, an old freak, white beard, long hair, I find happiness in moments, no one to share each day, full of complications, to hold recollections as if reality emerges from a dream, this life, my mind yes, I hope soon to die, I cannot bear each day, same old, same old, calamity stay gold, Ivana, always a surprise
