I don't feel very American
Though I've lived here most of my life
The politics is hideous
Relentlessly the strife

I was in Vienna once
All that beautiful snow
One summer in Stockholm
One week in Tokyo

Corpse to the Fire
Ashes to the sea
Disappear forever
In Dublin meant to be

                  Si.

never gonna
I'm never gonna find it
Not it or her or them
3 days in Vienna
Flight from Jerusalem

So I live my lonely life
Eat lunch on my own
Text my oldest son
On this little black cell phone

                       Rome!

Red Pine's Road to Heaven
Mountains in the mist
Silence is the Way
Everlasting kiss

Green and grey Seattle
Ferry boats are blue
Rain upon the water
I see Seattle U.

Solamente yo

I never wrote a book
Little poems for me
Chicago to Seattle

I miss her yes I do
Miss her desperately
Florida has the rain
Florida - xie xie ni

I seek
I seek, Ms. Susan Meek
Your gentle voice is kind
San Francisco Zen
Bangkok Buddhamind

Slowly growing older
Keep them in my heart
Save me, Senyorita!
Save me, sacred art!
Boredinary, Maryland
Slowly day by day
Red Pine's Road to Heaven
Silent is the Way

Boredinary, Maryland
Rain is what she say
Living leaves me low
Nothing gold can stay

Fatherhood is difficult
Slowly. Step by step.
Worry, worry, worry
Please keep them safe.

I don't understand women
They don't understand me
One summer in Stockholm
Beauty Baltic Sea

Will I die alone?
In Dublin meant to be
Coastal California
Please protect my 3!

Fondly little Reno
Big blue sky by day
Aging aging aging
Can't find words to pray

Lake Tahoe in the winter
Such a lovely sight
Drive the team for basketball
Gatsby's green light

I wish I was...
I wish I was a shaman
And not just bipolar
I'm tired. Exoplanets!
Rainfall in the night

Yes, I'd like to ...
And I'd like to hold her
A little rock n' roll
A little morning light

                 Well, alright!

quiet
The library is quiet
My son does his math
Dr. Cohen is a scholar
Trump is a psychopath

I don't read the Bible much
But yes, love is patient and kind
Tokyo to Kyoto
In Bangkok Buddhamind

West!
The world is a kind of madhouse
The religions are quite crazy
San Francisco Bay
Sky gone brown and hazy

I'm still fond of Reno
Tahoe in the snow
Seattle misty rain
Yoko yo yo yo yo!

                         West!

Daily life
Boring daily life
The struggle and the strife
Courage for my sons
Calm for my wife

Libraries in silence
Protected from the violence
Solitary reading
Let us rise and go hence

                     Ole!

Ordinary day
Basketball since I was very young
My son watches the NBA
3 hard tacos
Ordinary day

We'll go to the library later
Do a little math
America is lost
Trump's a psychopath

                       Slowly.

We
We
The conservatives are afraid of gay people
And folks who are not white
Time tick tocks
Gatsby's green light

I long to ride a ferry boat
Stare out at the sea
In Seattle softly snow
In Dublin meant to be

                     We.

Drifting ...
I'm tired and I'm lonely
I age without a woman
Boredinary Maryland
Take care of my sons

Will I die alone?
Will I die in pain?
Will I be forgotten?
I ride the Downbound Train.

Once I was a teacher
Teaching Robert Frost
This life is a Maze
Often I feel lost

Now I'm just a dad
Please, life, protect my 3
