Traveling Cloud, a line from a poem I wrote -- The name, the lines from the poem, comfort me in hard times, if only a reminder of hard times that have been, and hard times that are now, and will pass. as the others have.
Some days are hard and lonely. Here is the poem:
TO BE IN MY SKIN
If you came into my skin
It would take you a long time to
Get used to
All the trouble,
I am a rooting weed ,
A broken rock,
A traveling cloud
You cannot touch,
I am a bridge,
I am Jerusalem,
The Intefada,
The Holocaust,
Rwanda,
Looking for Redemption,
To be in my skin is
To feel God,
Know Satan,
And make my birthday wish
For World Peace.
