The Ways of Yearning

In my mind I am always

thinking

about everything

how to filter it

is the wanting question

It is wanting to follow

the thread

to reach the way

of thoughts

I think the thread

snow

balls

it every chatter

collecting thoughts

and how does one unball

all

we have gathered?

I must follow the thread to the end I ask others to unravel with me

It’s not about me

it’s us

we

unravel

unball

To reach the end

we must take our beings

and yearn

the moments

together

In Way of Music Water Answers

Like water I am eager

Like water I am thinking

Like water I always move

Like water I am thinking time

open and following eager going

pathways and open going nowhere

I boat on the water the way I want to talk

A Landing Always Answers

Outing the young open feeling upward

into the place of work

the walk is when I think the most

and my body is a single pattern

and art is a feeling

inside it

but the way of walking

is also falling

and a landing always answers

so I want to know

why people want me

to always question the ways

I eagerly say what I want

dancing a lot in language

I want places

to answer in the want

of words
