Hi Matt,
Been on the road out of NA ironically since before
9.11 exploring 3rd and 4th world dimensions. Here's a
couple of new poems for your consideration. Feel free
to drop me a note.
Regards,
Tim
Mint Man
One bike, panniers made of straw
Piles of fresh cut mint
Delivered to cafes by 7 a.m.
Ragged blue jacket, blows snot in driveway,
Shifts his load, his life
Pushes it down the road.

Short Wave Receptive Tongues
Do your duty, take your sons and go fight,
Crusades are a road you have to take,
You will never see your family again,
They are part of your death,
They are playing a part in your interpretation,
They are always moving up to the front lines,
Where blood is no argument.
