A strange thing happens
once you’re as old as your heroes
The mystery less enchanting
the romance nearly gone
A stranger thing happens
when you outlive your heroes
The nuances shouting boldly
—permission now won
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
Darkness Runs
The night a gift
though minus sleep
With dreams adrift
and words to keep
Blankness woven
connection spun
A poem born
—dark on the run
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
Free & Clear
The night in riches
my vault again full
The words overflowing
old debts now annulled
The stillness a fortune
its quiet sublime
The meaning unmortgaged
—a poem divine
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
