If somebody asked you
what’s your story–
What would you say
What answer would you give
that’s completely unrehearsed
Without presupposition
Unconditioned
Absent any pretense
Just being–
in the gentle spring breeze
Steadying us
Yet blowing us away
Like the Beatles’ Yellow Submarine
Poetic Alchemist
Poetry by Don Iannone
Oh, my answer:
Nice one!
“And our friends are all aboard,
Many more of them live next door,
And the band begins to play.”
