Too many danger signs. Too many warnings.

He wants to go deep with his wife. He can’t.

Too many deadlines. Too many t.v. commercials.

He wants to be covered with dust. He can’t.

Too much soap.  Too much water.

He wants to walk deep into night .  He can’t.

Too many street lights. Too many headlights.

He wants to know the mystery of God. He can’t.

Too many clergy who do not know nothing.

He wants to know the deep heart of the bull. He can’t.

Picasso is dead.  Garcia Lorca is dead.

He does not want see in the dark.

He wants to see the dark itself. He can’t.

Too many flashlights. Too many night vision goggles.
