life & luck
i am so lucky to even live
so many in my circles they
passed on
may the thankfulness
live forever. if nothing
else
coda
wip. coda
this morning i was not feeling well but i got up just the same and chose tea instead of coffee to steam in a cup beside me while i wrote. i worked on the epilogue. i am reframing it: coda. i also changed the prologue to prelude. i did not simply choose these words because they are sweeter to the tongue. i chose them because i do see my novels, holistically, as musical compositions. they have rhythms and beats, high and low pitches, hooks and repetitions and refrains. life is like that, too.
life on life
fightin to breath
swamped with media
loving you
mad at a careless system
sometimes it feels like
the last day
and
our boots crush the leaves
trodding on
into the thick
of it
what was life
what was life before our devices?
yet
I was on the yet and thinking of you before we even met, and you let me down when I met you. Beware of bold imagination, I promised myself, before meeting me where I was, the only place I could be, many years after a lifeless rehearsal of life.
magic
life becomes tolerable
moment by moment
it won’t ever be acceptable
in analysis
life won’t ever add up
to any magic number
it won’t hold in retrospect
it won’t measure up
to any ideal
life falls apart
then regroups
life is never the same
always changes and
cannot be predicted
by forecast or made
meaningful
no
life is unkempt
windblown
bedraggled
life will not love you only
you may love life
for the moment
you are lucky
to exist
