Kehena Nights - poem

Kehena Nights

I pray to become content in boring routine

let days fly past while my life turns to stone

let the world’s troubles wash over me

Drown out all sorrows with TV

I dreamt I got the real settlement check

Hey hon now our life is set

But woke up feeling only regret

Perhaps time for a new accident

Now I’m dreaming of warm Kehena nights

Wicked tones dissolve into lava flows

While cetaceans dance in the harbour

And bid us sorrowful farewell
