Bare and exposed
This tree stands alone
Alone...
But it still stands
Tall & strong
Only temporarily robbed of its beauty by winter's unforgiving cold
In the dark
But still...
It reaches forward; toward the light
Despite its crooked appearance and deformation it continues to reach and extend itself
For it knows the sun is soon to shine.
I am that tree!

Stoplight
When the sun sets and the dark sky hovers
When everyone is gone and I drive away
It's always at the first stoplight...
It hits me and it hurts.

Water like me
"Water is fluid, soft and yielding.
But, water will wear away rock that is rigid and cannot yield.
As a rule,
whatever is fluid, soft and yielding
will overcome whatever is
rigid and hard.
This is another paradox:
what is soft is strong."

FAR AWAY HARLEM
JUST AROUND THE CORNER
I SIT
JUST AROUND THE CORNER
CLOSE TO YOUR HEART
I'M HERE SITTING
FAR AWAY
AROUND THE CORNER
AROUND THE CORNER
I'M NEVER TOO FAR
IN FAR AWAY HARLEM
MY HEART DOES NOT TRAVEL
EVEN AS MY FEET ARE MOVING
IT RESTS
JUST OUTSIDE THE WALLS SHIELDING YOUR OWN
QUIETLY NEAR
IN FAR AWAY HARLEM
