It’s a Wonderful Life: An Anthology

NY State of Mind
My holiest intent
is to do my best
to enjoy the hell
out of this specific incarnation,
its quirks and foibles,
challenges and riches,
as I fully invest
in playing John Biscello
for a short while,
before identity melts
and disperses into so many
glimmering blue and golden bubbles,
and I return to the source for a Bardo makeover.
