"(Often it seems I am writing about a romantic relationship when I am not. This is because I use the second person. The "you" is so intimate..). My life sometimes seems to me a reaction to life, as if I am documenting my fleeting experience (drenched in nostalgia and longing). But there are many ways to have a valuable life..."

something lost

whatever words of wisdom or folly destined to go here, they were absorbed into the river of time unwritten, forgotten, left as thought undisturbed by expression... but I do have some undeniable recollections that draw me in late at night... distant callings, ancient fallings, romantic dreams and memories... the best of times, the worst of times, and far far better things...

downtown
brownstones
concrete steps
distant eyes

I saw a Minotaur in New York City
he wanted more than anyone could know
to know the love in a woman's heart
to fly to touch the sun
like the pillars
of glass and stone
above the peaks
of glass and stone

and ivy grows up cold brick walls
and people decorate their stalls
and divided by plaster walls
so many phones that no one calls

if you've ever lived in New York City
you know something no one else can know
in the presense of so many people
squeezed so close together
so many so alone

and ivy grows up cold brick walls
and people decorate their stalls
and divided by plaster walls
so many phones that no one calls

walking down the street in New York City
you feel something no one else can know
only cars and footsteps break the silence
brushed by so many people
you'll never know

and ivy grows up cold brick walls
and people decorate their stalls
and divided by plaster walls
so many phones that no one calls

if you ever loved in New York City
you've grown something only you can know
embraced by the passion of strangers
and the dangers
of blood flows

in the news the siren shreaks
on subway platforms no one speaks
the energy of love and tension
and a walk in the park is an adventure

city lights and city pains
city tears and city rains
city fears and city highs
city dreams and city skies
mystery... surprise

and ivy grows up cold brick walls
and people decorate their stalls
and divided by plaster walls
so many phones that no one calls

if you ever cried in New York City
you've lost something no one else can know
consumed by the vacuum of strangers
indifference
always shows

and ivy grows up cold brick walls
and people decorate their stalls
and divided by plaster walls
so many phones that no one calls

downtown
brownstones
concrete
steps
distance
eyes

I saw a Minotaur in New York City...
