Realized InTent
Somehow this lovely day I be -- Through pride and through humility Through independence with restraint Through steadiness of good intent In moving back into my tent Communicative follow through That all involved may healthy learn Good boundaries, but with concern Undiminished by circumstance -- Permitted now a further chance Bought by my willingness to go A bit away from where they are -- Not too close yet not too far -- With whom I do not wish to be at war While hopefully they healing are Of past misunderstandings' scars Event'ually to rise above All impediments to love I have an understanding note From the child on whom I dote Which since bought by tented life be I come to it most happily

A poet is the strangest sort of soul
You in this life may e'er expect to meet
More broken even while more truly whole,
Innocently intending well, more sweet
Than any but a five year old should be
Unfit to meet a callused world's demand
Or to behave aught expediently
All grace in flight; an albatross on land
Do not the all too common error make
Do not fall into the too easy trap
Avoid the fatal egoic mistake
Imagining that poet be a sap
Powerful spirits classic and antique
Give voice when poets ope their mouths to speak
