Fifteen Senyru Reflecting Forty-Two Years

Fifteen Senryu Reflecting Forty-Two Years
an invitation
to join earthbound symphonies
the call accepted

tiny knocked up egg
i am conceived and growing
the journey begins

a new world appears
i already want guidance
who are these people

give me attention
i catapult food at you
why did i come here

kindergarten class
blocks and crayons and long naps
illusion begins

memorize the facts
school pap, no contemplation
what a way to live

teenage years arrive
do not tell me what to do
nothing can be done

serious trauma
life is so unfair it seems
lets try some cocaine

loony bin hello
what drugs are you giving me
who are these doctors

illusion complete
you are the ones who need pills
I am not staying

life continues on
twenty one years and counting
san francisco nights
sex, drugs, rock and roll
oysters, champagne, more cocaine
have you seen my car

illness wakes me up
illuminates compassion
now give me some pie

life on this planet
way too short or way too long
too early to tell

this is not forty
this is not even fifty
it is just right now
