untitled

I gave a year to you
forgetting
infinity will outlive me

------

letting go

tension falls
from my face
I feel the falling
release my mind
unclenching
my furrowed brow


--

silence

Look to the right for the Hebrew poem:

אני לא רוצה לשיר
אני לא שומעת את השיר
אני רק רוצה שקט
היום

It sounds like:
Ani lo rotsa lasheer
Ani lo shoma'at ha sheer
Ani rak rotsa sheket
hayom

Translation:
I don't want to sing
I don't hear the song
I only want silence
today

sleepless nights...

What do I do
when sleep creeps in
haunting daylight
with its dreams?


---------


84 cents in my bank account
and falling
failing feels like
an empty account
revealing
nothing I've done

freedom

pressure pressing
my musical mind
picture-taking
making
memories
making
my focus
rigorous
making
my mind
ache

stop
i say
stop and sit

atop a cliff
side i close
my eyes
and breathe

and breathe
and sit

and open my eyes... to beauty
