Amerigo A Goodbye
Where I Am
This is a way of lancing my bad feelings, and my vocal friends have been incredible in their support of me. I have another piece that is on a similar universe, but I am definitely in a very good place now.
I took the penultimate line from the Patti Smith song Amerigo and this will hopefully purge all my bad feelings because only I can do that.

Then Some Days We Feel So Lost
And We Never Know Which Roads
It Is Not Clear, What Is The Cost?
We Feel We Lost Secret Codes
ึ
We Canโt Ask For Any Help
Weโre A Burden and Boredom
We;re On Our Own Weโre Not Well
Maybe This is our Freedom
ึ
We Will Walk Alone, Away
Across The Sea And Ocean
Far Away From Those We Know
Hit A Beach of Unknown Sand
To Be Baptised In The Rain
Of A More Beautiful Land
ึึึึึึึึึึึึึึึ

The Invisibility Of A Name
I am not sure why I wrote this, partly it is how I believe people perceive me when the reality is completely different, although I do believe seriously that not many will notice this, and if they do may not see what it is really about, but the ones who do see it will feel very rewarded.

His Haibun
He does not like poetry; I write it anyway and do not tell him. It's true his face is not a poet's face. It is round and open, youthful; too apt to be compared to the sun. His nose is neat. It is impossible to imagine him smoking a cigarette, terse, full of cheekbones and tension. His warmth burns my fingertips. I am here for his fascinating body, the haphazard freckles I touch one by one; he is here for my eyes, just my eyes. A sunbeam sneaks through the curtains and pierces us both, sizzling the spices of his skin. I inhale and wrap myself in him. He kisses my eyes.

RunPee App
I was going through the stories I wrote way before Vocal and found a series Iโd penned on the American movie industry. I covered the economics of making and distributing movies, the ways the movie industry responds to modern challenges such as MeToo movement and the streaming technologies, and other topics, including some movie reviews.
