Albatross (Do Your Thing)
6-20-17

Running my fingers through my own dirty blonde hair
Saith another priest to earn another A
As a collage graduate in another lifetime
Come parallels for another distraction from this heaviness of knowledge
My burden, O albatross do your thing
As Pharaoh hardens his heart again
For the cause of another ready pen
As to expatriate what is Horatio
There who hath reviled you
I have seen nothing of this fashion
In being given a generous ration
Making crosses at the festival....





To Start Anew
6-20-17

Come Animus waiting and agonizing
To start anew every day we  wake
We start afresh another indication
Of that which we cannot but grasp
As the adder and the asp
Perhaps I don't belong here
Unable to laugh at the same jokes told
Ignoring their semiexistentce
In that I couldn't go on
In a need to get out and see the world
Making crosses just to get out for a day at the coffee house
At best as a renegade on the premises at Saint Xavier's
We wait for a blessing clad in corset
Come Prie-dieu
Making something work....
