SEDONA CREEK
Within the expanses
of nature
The Great Spirit of existence
breathes life.
Intuitive messages swirl
down and around and through
trees,canyons, mesas, dried creeks
Messages of time
of lessons learned
and knowledge exposed
Unseen, the wind directs its breath,
murmering, then silence, rest.
This stillness within natures' nest
brings a wisdom from the
beginning of time, settling within
our souls.
Trust it. It will gently
lead us toward everlasting
harmony and peace.

REHAB
Manny glares upward into the eyes of the psychiatrist.
Dr. Rosen looks down,
Manny spins his wheelchair
toward the blank wall.
There won't be another chance.
This is the last.
Your cyclic returns from the same crowd,
same drugs. Despair is a statement.
Leave now
and there won't be another chance.
A silver chain lay twisted
around Manny's sweaty neck.
Jesus' tormented body stretched
on the cross that rests
on his chest.
Is God a mirage we crawl
through burning desert toward?
Is the answer above us,
below, or within?
The sides of Mannys greased black hair
sweeps back, blending with it's length.
A bold mustache quivers
machisimo emanates from his legless upper body
tense, full of fight.
Damn those betraying stumps.
Damn the doctor.
Damn life.
Manny clenches his fists.
Raw guteral screams
pierce the air like hellish flames.
Sobs bellow filling the room
and down the halls
echoing again and again.
