The gun lobby finds waiting periods inconvenient. You have only to ask my husband how inconvenient he finds his wheelchair from time to time.

The Poet Finds....

The poet finds whatever the moon could not see,
The poet finds whatever the earth does not know,
The poet finds whatever the sun could not see,
The poet finds whatever others do not know,
The poet finds whatever the stars could not see,
So why do the heathen rage and the people plot vanity? !
For she who is pregnant is closer to us,
And the hart pants after streams of water.
Your tears have been your food night and day,
And like your inner self in the lan dof your muse;
But the poet finds whatever the sun could not see.

An Inconvenient Truth

truths somehow are inconvenient
like living on walls so tight that we cannot breathe
because air is so thin,
like living high up on the topmost hill,

truths make us uneasy
like we fear that somehow these truths are uncovered
and the corresponding penalties
are hard to accept and endure

just like this inconvenient truth that soon we shall have
ice melting, waters rising, lands diminishing
populations exploding, massive floods
people drowning, global warming,

i remember Noah, just like you remember how he
constructed his ark
on those clearer summer days,
he did not build his ark when the flood came
put yourself in his shoes
or in the shoes of the ordinary onlooker

was he not crazy? was it not really inconvenient for him?
or was it not worst with you

because you have no capacity for truth
or believing it
you have no talent to live in its shadows
you have always been repealed
by its warm embracing arms

you will wait when you will be slapped by its very hands
by then it will be too late

you are drowning, and the ark has sailed farther to that island
of truth where you will no longer be its inhabitant

The more we get out of the world the less we leave, and in the long run we shall have to pay our debts at a time that may be very inconvenient for our own survival.

Everything And Everyone

She's never afraid of what her past had might become
Alone in her lazy time in-between a thought that ends with loss
Her life is spent searching for the next
An answer a question never asked
Everything and everyone finds their time
Everything and everyone writes their line
But it seems hard now things work out in time

She lacks self pride her lazy time
Never once identified her lonely nights
Spending days alone but through the phone
She waits for a voice to calm her name
Then takes a drink says it makes me sane
She lives through a dream she once called fate
Then finds herself alone to contemplate

Everything and everyone finds their time
Everything and everyone writes their line
But it seems hard now things work out in time

Time & Time Again

(jay gruska / robbie buchanan)
Here we are again
Off and on again
Every year just slips away
We keep meeting here
No-one else is near
Still, theres always more to say
I know, you know
Theres no end
Still Ill always tell you
Friend, I love you
When the night finds us together
Time and time again
When the feeling just gets better
Time and time again
Can the moment last forever?
Time and time again
She never knows of me
And never wants to see
Sometimes you are in my eyes
Still, well go home to them
Until we meet again
How well weve come to know goodbyes
I know, you know
Theres no end
Still Ill always tell you
Friend, I love you
When the night finds us together
Time and time again
When the feeling just gets better
Time and time again
Can the moment last forever?
Time and time again
And the feeling does get better
Time and time again

Time And Time Again

(jay gruska / robbie buchanan)
Here we are again
Off and on again
Every year just slips away
We keep meeting here
No-one else is near
Still, there's always more to say
I know, you know
There's no end
Still i'll always tell you
Friend, i love you
When the night finds us together
Time and time again
When the feeling just gets better
Time and time again
Can the moment last forever?
Time and time again
She never knows of me
And never wants to see
Sometimes you are in my eyes
Still, we'll go home to them
Until we meet again
How well we've come to know goodbyes
I know, you know
There's no end
Still i'll always tell you
Friend, i love you
When the night finds us together
Time and time again
When the feeling just gets better
Time and time again
Can the moment last forever?
Time and time again
And the feeling does get better
Time and time again

It's very inconvenient because every time I finish, let's say, a chapter of a book, I think I'm going to ring Richard and then realize: Oh, Christ, I've buried him. I buried him last year.

As Soon As Love Finds Me

** Ive been holdin out
Ive been hiding from the light
Sneakin down the back streets
Sneakin down the backstreets
But no longer, can hide my eyes
From the city nights**
* and soon as love finds me I will go
No I wont, say no
As soon as love finds me (when it finds me)
I will go*
Now Ive had my share
Of one night affairs
When I was a little younger
(just a little younger)
Well it wasnt love
But we really didnt care
It was close enough
(* repeat)
All my life I pretended ya know
Id go through the motions
Its never been love
Its always been wrong, its gotta be
Right on the time this time
I need, deep devotion
Its gonna be real emotion
Or I refuse to go
(**repeat)
(* repeat)
I will go

Sonnet: On Time-Management

Even a hundred years will not suffice
For man on earth to do things tangible!
For priceless time cannot be bought for a price,
And the Tempter finds man most gullible.

One-third of life-span goes away in sleep!
One-half of day, in learning, working goes;
Rest of the time for personal jobs, men keep;
For other things, man is upon his toes!

Time's the restraint for man's achievements then;
Time is not to be wasted anytime;
Value of time when realized by men,
Helps man to soar the skies in any clime!

The man who finds the time for everything
Is upon earth, a leader, ruler, king!

Black Morning Lovesong

In love's dances, in love's dances
One retreats and one advances,
One grows warmer and one colder,
One more hesitant, one bolder.
One gives what the other needed
Once, or will need, now unheeded.
One is clenched, compact, ingrowing
While the other's melting, flowing.
One is smiling and concealing
While the other's asking kneeling.
One is arguing or sleeping
While the other's weeping, weeping.

And the question finds no answer
And the tune misleads the dancer
And the lost look finds no other
And the lost hand finds no brother
And the word is left unspoken
Till the theme and thread are broken.

When shall these divisions alter?
Echo's answer seems to falter:
'Oh the unperplexed, unvexed time
Next time...one day...one day...next time!'

Every Man Has A Woman Who Loves Him

Every man has a woman who loves him
In rain or shine or life or death
If he finds her in this life time
He will know when he presses his ear to her breast
Why do I roam when I know youre the one
Why do I laugh when I feel like crying
Every woman has a man who loves her
Rise or fall of her life and death
If she finds him in this life time
She will know when she looks into his eyes
Why do I roam when I know youre the one
Why do I run when I feel like holding you
Every man has a woman who loves him
If he finds her in this life time
He will know

Not Wheelchair Accessible

I have something to say but no one will hear it because I can’t get in.
The place to speak is not wheelchair accessible.
My whole life I have been on the outside looking in.
Because most business owners brains are not wheelchair accessible.
When I’m on the street corner just waiting for bus some one walks up and hands me a dollar because they think I’m begging another mind that is not wheelchair accessible.
I know most people have to look down to see me, but they don’t need to look down on me. A person who is unable to see past the physical is a person who will never see that I’m not the one with the disability they are. Do you hear me or are you not wheelchair accessible.
