Inside the Columbarium
Inner Richmond
Saturday afternoon

***

San Francisco says Variety.
People. Architecture. Sounds. Views. Temperatures.
All the disparate specs
All piled upon each other…
I could sit here forever and just never get to the point-
AND be ok with it…

contemplating what it is that I love about this city
at this juncture of my life is like a brainstorming session,
lots of things…Popping up.

I lost some things sometime,
I knew I’d find them here.
With every trip around the city,
Not that I’d look for “things”
They are just here,
Hiding unless you see them.

i am not talking about finding
my Self here or anything

And I lose things too…
There’s not one way to describe
This motion of emotion as
There is not one person to portray it, the things,
These little things
they are just here, and there
it’s the little things that remind
me its ok to cry, while also they
help me fight back the tears.
they remind me of what has
Been, and what will be-
That it CAN be, whatever it is.

That being said, it’s the little things that can propel us through life.
I walk around as if I am in a dream.
The little things, they are everywhere in this city,
and they are all I see.
