A Poem for Lauren



even when there is pause in the chase

the good is not up for capture.

while we slumber nothing stays still

and that is relief; the heart of all humor.


True fools feign forever with measure.

Habits, well intentioned but heartless,

grind the mind, concealing hope--

best to be a false fool with careful dance:


there are todays in which hope is held

in a strangers voice, each moment is leading,

and the harness which holds us promises

some give when lines are too taut
