To plumb my own depths
How can I ask you
To understand me
How can I ask you
To understand me
Reminds me
Of Saturday morning
After a long week of long days
Touched
Heard
Smelled
Tasted
Seen
Reasoned
I am out of time
With the world
Out of rhythm
With the seasons of my being
Insights and memories and loved ones come
But cannot fill the emptiness
A loss of self
Nearly as profound
As the loss of another
Not to become
Icons of Hollywood
But to impress upon the inhabitants
Where the true source
Can be found
Interpretations
Of a world made
From highlights
And shadows
Rendering texture
And line
Sometimes
That
Is all
I need
I love a country that is big
That is grand
Where the sky
Makes love to land
Still, there remain aspects unseen
Valleys undiscovered
Some never to be revealed
