A colourful artistic rendering of a woman standing in an open doorway looking out on to the sea. It's a very happy and full of life image.

The Doorman Abstracts

i imagine
you imagine
we imagine
our silently
withheld
common
dreaming
quest

oh wise one
tell us more
we implore
at the door
of some
slightly coursing
changing
gradually
just discovered truth

i cannot tell
you more
you simply
cannot see
i’m slightly
coursing changing
and obscurely
i’m obtuse

it’s understanding
that you seek
and
don’t imagine
i imagine
you imagine
me

oh wise one
we implore
at the door
tell us more
of some
softly fuzzy
fading
newly
reconditioned truth

i cannot tell
you more
you simply
cannot see
i’m softly
fuzzy fading
and mostly
i’m misplaced

it’s sympathy
that you seek
and
don’t imagine
i imagine
you imagine
me

oh wise one
at the door
tell us more
we implore
of some
slowly burning
brightly
oddly
smiling truth

i cannot tell
you more
you simply
cannot see
i’m slowly
burning brightly
and bravely
i’m benign

it’s love
that you seek
and
don’t imagine
i imagine
you imagine
me

so wise one
if you cannot
tell us more
of some
slightly
softly
slowly
coursing
fuzzy
burning
changing
fading
brightly
gradually
newly
and oddly
just discovered
reconditioned
smiling truth,
why open your door
when we implore?

i imagine
you imagine
we imagine
our silently
withheld
common
dreaming
quest.

OCAFIP – Songs I Remember

An artistic rendering of a man and his child standing before an abstract and old oval doorway. The scene is very peaceful and contemplative.

it’s your life
