The Journal

In a room viewing snow-bound

woods, a cup on a table

an open journal abandoned.

I have given up writing

the meaningless chronology

of my day, concluded, and I

may be wrong, that nobody

in their right mind wants to read

anything but war, cruelty, killing

catastrophes and other

exciting stuff. And sports.

– from Profound Nonsense, A Book of Poetry
