Diamonds from Coal
by Jonathan Bolick |
New stuff, from the next book...
"Painless nirvana" |
| the commonality of pain |
brings us all together |
| |
| we languish after the stories |
| sharing them with one another |
| |
| the pain, suffering |
| how to beat both |
| |
| we move on |
| secrets passed |
| ways to achieve |
| |
| painless nirvana |
| |
| even here |
| at the denture shop. |
"Looking at the boys playing baseball" |
| The youth of today |
feeds the grumpy old |
| man of the future. |
| Enjoy, you bastard, |
| you'll get yours. |
"Awakening" |
| the winged horse, the unicorn, the minotaur |
all mythical creatures, |
| |
| like the honest man, |
| lately. |
