My Brother’s coming into town!!!

Bro

I haven’t seen him since last Thanksgiving, and he’s finally moving back to Florida after living in Hawaii for the last 5 years. (Before thanksgiving, the last time I saw him was when he was leaving.) I just wired him some $$$ to get a few last things together to go, so he should be coming into town before the weekend is here! Yayyy! Now I really need to Boot April out of my pad, so that he can stay at my place for a little while. (Downside is that he’s allergic to my little pal Newton… Dagnabbit!) We’ll have to see where it decides to go, but it’ll be fun. As a quick descripter of my bro – My height, maybe a little taller, (6’6″) and he’s on the lean side, as he surfs daily.

words

I had something else to say tonight
but all the words
just ran out of me

i stood there, naked,
and watched the last ones
flow from my lips
and leave laughing

while it is a relief
to not have the multitudes
pressing at the gate,
i wonder where I will find more
since I don’t know
where they came from to begin with

the ones that were in me
still circle me
and mock me
and light my way down

someday i’ll say something apropos,
something sensitive and intelligent
about it all

but first I have to get some more
of those wonderful words
