Drawing by Don Bachardy
Second Wind
Through the clouds accumulated
Over the past week
Well into my second flight
Wanderlust
As I gaze from my round window
The High Sierras below
Knowing I am in Mexico
Turmoil of a week of
Weak emotions since another
Journey to California
Overwhelming
Wanting to stay home
Resisting the predawn Taxi
Hating the air terminal herd
Foreboding
Feelings of an old man
Without heart for more
Gazing at desire filled youth
While reading of Picasso at 90
Creating art as a magician
Wand intact casting spells
Glad for Mexico
Where desire death life are
Real as Don Bachardy's nudes.
--Jack Miller
flight to Mexico, 6/17/'09
