Rather

Long before there were any years counted
Things were there to be seen
You might think the sunset not so colorful

The dirtier your air the better your sunset
Volcanoes rarely work overtime
Man, we clock in and go everyday on schedule

This time of year you witnessed the sun stop
Then you saw the sun turn around
Probably why we started counting

Imagine a plain naturally pointing there
Some geologic function defining the turning point
When you know why you see how

Imagine you were the first to ask the question
Understand we still have no answer
Always been a good time to celebrate

We live by the calendar on our wall
They lived by the one in the sky
What would you rather

Peace and joy
There are seasons here
Many more reasons here

Noise

There should be more noise
Life is able too do all things but explain itself
Almost there at times it seems

I know about me
My memories are more than high Fidelity
They are me

All or nothing my design
There are mechanisms we ignore
More than simple

Anesthesia is an art
The most everyday thing we have little understanding
We are trail by error

We should test reality
Findings are from where we look
Most we miss

There is nothing fair
This is the Justice of the cosmos
We shouldn't exist

Leaner

I was a leaner
Always had more strength than I needed
Told myself stories missed most of what was going on
I was young that's what you do

Now I wonder if it was my nature
Or that I had my whole life someone strong enough to lean on

Seventy

I don't know anyone  without a problem
Never met someone happier than me
Was never good with boundaries
I have met people like me

I am gullable and naive
Never met someone more curious than me
Not as good a listener as an asker of questions
I have met people that are not interested

Why think what would Jesus do
We know what Jesus did
Things seem clear
The human heart is flawed

You can do nothing alone
If your not organized what are you
The same pen that speaks of majesty
The same pen that curses

Can your God build more than one universe
Think of 1918 or 1981
Imagine how they will think of us in 2118
Imagine your family

I don't think God could build just one
How would you go about it
Have argued the universe an ocean making machine
Some interesting scum upon the afternoon

Why would God take short cuts
Probably wouldn't
Doesn't seem like a long way to me

Whim

Warm hot intergalactic medium
Something seen signals stabilized
Amplified is what we do with them

I imagine we could sled those tendrils of gas connecting the galaxies
What is snow but a medium

Pocket Full of Sand

prologue

"It's hard to write a book."  Maybe it was hearing it out loud.  It wasn't the type of thing you heard out loud.  I never read prologues unless I like the book and then I like to linger.  I do this with people as well.  My brain won' remember names till the third time I hear.  Our name something of a prologue.  It is a word you become more comfortable spelling.  The book club was unique.

"Who writes a book."  Or had I thought that as I backed up.  What we cannot express is what inspires.  The more you get to know anything the more you see the dark side.  The difficulty in winning a political debate lies in making a person value differently.  Could say it is impossible if we had used up all the words.  Each more than themselves.  Thing about words is they come in certain orders that contain infinity.  Complex math discovered or invented does solve complex problems. 

1.

When I was young I was in a big hurry to get somewhere.  I found myself sitting on a beach along the Adriatic.   I had a pocket full of sand.   Didn't want to go anywhere more.   Big part of me never did.   When you know more than one language you start to realize thinking is really translating.   My friend Vlada came to the center said he was dreaming in English.   I still smile.   Something somewhere.   I have always known what I want to write about.  I have always know what I owe.

The funny thing is I know the words as well.   Held the book in my hands I have not written.   I don't have a time machine I am one.   You have a better theory of sleep.   How life motivates simple time travel.   Spiders fly on magnetic fields.   We just figured that out.   Sometimes it is good to date your writing.   Suppose we will find out new surprising things.  The truth is we haven't even imagined the best super powers.

We have only guesses of what makes up most of our universe.  Any scientist will tell you that.   Seems to have come from nothing.   Even room to be created from nothing.   So large that perhaps everything must happen.   That some fun math.  A lottery so old every number has won.   Really better than that,  because there are only so many possible things to occur.   A logical logistical reality.

The language they are in are me.   Thinking in other languages awake you start to feel it isn't hard to translate because that is what you mostly do.   Jack Kerouac didn't like to translate he wanted the open vien.  Other side of this coin.   He wanted to write at once and be done.   Out was their idea of modern.   Got me out on the road. 

Makes me feel better to know the words are not inadequate it is their translation.   I keep writing about the same thing my idea of modern.   We have no excuses for ignorance.  Plenty still here and I look to go back there.   I remember the beach the most.

2.

There should be more noise.  Whatever you are doing the best scientists are hard pressed to explain.  Does not mean that we can not know.  More than often we don't want to know.  We close our mind.  We find limitations in our understanding an obstacle.   Should be our motivation. 

There is a mechanical wave that goes with our never impulses. Dismissed, think for a second.  They say there should be more noise.  They understand electronics.  They forget that we are not.  Remember something.  Beat a drum.  Clockwork people.

All or nothing design.  Why we can't put our thoughts away.  We often find ourselves missing the small or the large.  Global climate change easy to understand along with the solutions.  How to make people care we stumble.  We believe we understand the smallest details of the never cell firing.  We have zero understanding where consciousness sits. 

I pulled the church bell ninety seven times today.  Each time that cord pulled bell rung.  Where could there be a cord.  The boringest place in biology: the cell membrane.  Only really remember being told we animals had lost our wall.  Maybe why the plants aren't so impulsive.  There is not much noise. 

I remember life for a long time as one argument.  The only noise we have we create.  Along the cord we pull ourselves.  I smell Zippo now as any day then pulls a cord of my Grandma.  There is no noise.  More then electronic we are work.  More than both.  The only reason we remember so much is because we can.

Ship at See

There is more universe than anyone could need
Extravagant luxurious bountiful
A quality from quantity
There are many solar systems
No news good the best easy to ignore

Boundless extremist expansive not expensive
Welkin welcome as end a beginning souls be
In one hundred simulations a narrow gate ahead
We have linguistic memory cow beef pig pork
Posh or bourgeoisie

The information age
We have lost more than we will ever have
We collect data that piles up
Where you are from is either a question of faith
Or you don't really know

We know we are in this together
We know what science teaches compassion
We know what religion teaches compassion
Spooky action at a distance
That is a scientific term

The basic questions we may not find relevant
They are already there
Why science teaches compassion
Why religion teaches compassion

A ship at sea with no tolerance for the environment will not survive
The word better if you like pick others there are many
Pity sympathy concern fellow feeling
Vocabulary not as important as the design of your hypothesis
Old French again perhaps

Religion heal yourself the fancy of the court
But we concede that they surely talk of compassion
Which word we can leave behind for which kind
They both talk of a verb circumstance that leads to action

This poem is more personal
This is what science teaches me compassion
This is what religion teaches me compassion
This is how I feel
        a ship at see curious
