lots of addresses

"like i keep tellin' you,
if you live in the moment,
you've got lots of addresses,"

(jojo to his female companion
along the bike path on my walk)

jojo, young man,
red pony tail
pushing a bike loaded with two huge
suitcases,
and a big framed painting wrapped in
a blanket
picked up from behind a store going out
of business,
a gift for his mom

bottom teeth missing,
full of wisdom
joy
friendliness
humor
presence

"in my working days
i was really good at inventing things--
fixing things...managed properties"

i can see it

"if you live in the moment
you've got lots of addresses."

are you this rich?

every footstep, home.
every move you make, home.
every piece of cement, home.
every view, home.
the sky, the clouds, the breeze, home.
this person next to me, home.
this,
this,
this,
home.
never away from home,
can't leave home

a million, billion addresses
when you live
in the moment

each blade of grass
my dearest home,
the wind song,
bird radio,
who needs an ipod?
the rushing creek,
the spotlighted unnameable
stunning beauty

jojo's smile, home
