Burnished Eye

“Thee, but for that which is we”

I do not intend to take a long walk off the short pier of poetry, but I have my moments.

My Medium writing is suffering from conflicts with my day job, my music playing, and the two books I’m working on. As I said in my last piece, “in this life, you have to choose your regrets.”

And now you can choose to regret my choice to post my poetry…

A burnished eye

To see of thee

A depth of tranquility

Mindless of the chop and spree

Blown about

But anchored in the lee

The I that is thee

Thee, but for that which is we

I am you and you are me
