THOMAS R. PETERS, Jr.

1994

More sober than tanks & twice as pure

next to the desperate & furious palace on fire

I float across the sea, unable to eat

while the sun drifts by all dreamy like Spanish guitars

I seek to facilitate solitude in the past

where it’s as quiet as murder on the veranda

I pack my llama for the steep descent

to the austere house of a friend

Which is as large as it’s quiet

rarely does a traveler pass,

except for the many overhead i the air

Living in this glass house of silence

I seek to conquer sin,

suffering & love all before tomorrow
