embezzlement

it sounds good, coming out the mouth. It feels nice. Embezzlement. Mmmmmmmm.

Okay here’s a poem:

a monograph? no thank you

gimme something pleasing I could look at.

Something biblical

like a sunshine

over meadows cut by one

road

and maybe a fence and some trees

and a horizon with no

hurry, just ahead is home

and so on and so

I also see some birds

on a wire mind you

but then look

an Eagle! :)

way cool if you ask me ;)

whatever state i’m in

no matter the road

i’m driving home

Nice! a fun spontaneous poem at 1:13 AM alright haha haven’t done that in years, many im sure. Write a poem at this hour, that is. I also am gonna worry less about punctuation and spelling and such and just type right now. i’ve never been, nor have I sought to become a skilled a typist. using a keyboard properly never felt like something I wanted to do, and I don’t wanna change it probably, so im just gonna continue to use it poorly. So yes, okay. My Mom is coming to visit in 2 weeks and that’s exciting bc I live with my girlfriend in NC at her Dads and this is the longest stretch of time that i’ve been away from my family so its been on my mind. So I was thinking about her coming and then thought about poetry and then wrote this. I learned about poetry from my Mom. About Rumi. about Jesus. the Christ. about words and their impact. and their beauty. and their horror. and their protection. and big L Love. I wonder if my Mom had made any intentional pushes or somehow steered me in ways that would ensure I become a poet. that’s the first time i’ve ever thought that haha but idk. For as long as I can remember, my Mom and I would have conversations that are on par with the ones that Rick Rubin been having lately. lol nice!

Been getting some gigs here in Wilmington which is phat because its fun and the people are good. Spending time doing what you love is good and I never thought id love playing covers at bars to entertain people but life is highway. And im gonna ride it all night long

night y’all! haha
