āGod knows the secrets of your heart. Heāll tell them to you when youāre asleep.ā ~ Bob Dylan
After a long hot day on the trail
riding through the desert
on his faithful camel, Kamal šŖ
Mr. Smiley Face settled in for the night
down that hobbit hole for hire
at the no star Barrow Creek Hotel.

Getting off the train in Chicago,
the strong wind,
urgent like me.
Each waft carrying my steps
in the direction of home. Itās as if
nature knew it was time for us. Iām so ready
to capture what sustains me. Iāve missed you,
your silhouette, and your substance.
Being close to you is a memory I pull from.
It keeps me sane while Iām away. This couple
defining what a day needs is everything to me.
Longing to share of myself, my legs
hasten their pace. I want to be
wrapped in the space we create.
Iāve missed your light touch
caressing my face, and
the sweetness of your kisses
has haunted me for weeks.
The questions of workdays take
a backseat while we rediscover
the single-best thing of the us we are.
The focus in your gaze tells me I
was right to hurry. It keeps me coming back,

If we forget hope
When our world is too intense
Life becomes a mess

Sometimes we are not aware
Of the consequences of our words and deeds
When we notice them,
Often it is already too lateā¦
Then we get stuck in our own pride
With courage and confession
To be responsible for own mistakes
The rudder can still be pulled around
So we have to make peace with ourselves
To be in peace with othersā¦
It is never too late for thatā¦

remember that the airplane takes off against the wind,
not with it.

I need a dream
today
I need a dream
everyday
I need a dream
to dream
at night
like the shiver
in my bones
a dream
one day
to not be alone
