Random Thoughts for Yet Another August


It is not my duty to explain the world to you.
My mistakes will not end all the goodnesses
which bear fruit. Cloud formations take shape

and you see hope for the future. I have lived
much of my life beneath the ground. You re-
spond to Frost; I have a tough time making

my stanzas rhyme. It is right that we set aside
our differences and move on. Let's put an end
to all this madness. I have the need for uncon-

ditional love. I hug my dog in the morning
before deciding to go on. A wagging tail tells
me it’s worth it. Someone is knocking at the

door. Today, I will ignore all warnings. I have
been lied to so many times before.
