it's rare that i put down
a book and wonder that
i'm here and not there

with big groups
guiding has something
of sheep herding

in an organic universe
i love my red bull
even more

i neither love YOUR kids
nor YOUR pets,
keep'em at distance

the hummingbird
is mocking me, it should
be a mockingbird

under the Arbutus tree
enjoying a red bull;
lazy life

on the island of 'no'
i keep searching
for a 'yes'

in the summer heat
the dog walking itself
refuses my water

i wish i could say
i don't care, but
it pisses me off

my water bottle
is smiling
at me
