For Paloma and Vincent

don't be angry don't get mad
don't be too happy or sad
make your Mother proud
know what isn't allowed
don't push too hard
the world may reject you
listen to Johnny Cash
if I go soon turn to ash
do what you can to be true
when I was born I was blue
may you be blessed by Jesus,
Allah, Buddha, Krishna,
the Great Spirit,
and Abraham,
if they ask you tell 
them that's where I am
religion comforts the living
the devil deals with the dead
I recite my prayers
to whomever hears them
not quite sure
no one knows
angels along the highway
walk penance to the
Church of Chimayo
pace yourself when
on pilgrimage 
watch the water fall

watching using
peripheral vision
driving back home
from Prescott Valley
visiting family where 
we may be even 
able to own a home
a mountain view
need somewhere new
with our South American 
real relatives con mucho 
amor y espiritu bonito

It may be time to move this Monastery to another mountain.
I have yet to receive the exact coordinates,
but it will be in Prescott- where I shall be shot.
