The Winds Of Today (+1)

For Papa

 

That monster inside us

devouring the past

Our memories hunted

most recent to last

 

No mercy is shown us

as darkness creeps in

Today and tomorrow

—lost into the wind

 

(Tribute To Hemingway: January, 2024)

 

 

Lakota Buffalo Prayer

 

Shooting

today

Killing

tomorrow

 

Targeted

fortune

Lost

—to the wind

 

(The New Room: January, 2024)

 

 

At My Command

 

Lost within

the writing

Found

with each retelling

The universe

at my command

Time and space

—unveiling

 

(Dreamsleep: January, 2024)
