heading home (soon)

Two more hours of this meeting. . . Just two more hours.
If Joe is reading this, don't be fearful that I'll go all poetry on your ass for too long.
It's just the place that I'm in now.


heading home
para khubz

heading home
with gifts
for my girlchild:
hotel soap
an individual
box of cheerios,
my arms,
my voice,
my presence,
my self



heading home
para Scully

heading home
towards my
woman
who held up
the sky &
held me
together
from so far
away.
heading home
to hold her.

heading home
para me

heading home
back towards
myself
i will rest
with my people
i will be close
& tired
& finally
finally
home
