Euphues Rules (+1)

Wise and in love,

be there never the day

Where reason and passion

—together will lay

(The New Room: November, 2021)

Inside The Moment

Keeping it new,

beginning again

clearing my eyes,

avoiding the din

Keeping it new,

the present untold

the past but a weight,

the future on hold

Keeping it new,

returning at last

to what never leaves,

and never contrasts

Keeping it new,

tomorrow on loan

yesterday pawned

—eternity owned

(Dreamsleep: December, 2021)
