4.50 in the p.m. The afternoon sun “slanting” through the windows. It is always “slanting” – it never “sidles”. There are other things it doesn’t do. It doesn’t, for example, “palpitate”.

We were conscious of wrong-doing but went and drank ourselves stupid anyway. Someone would scrape us up off the sidewalk. Free of worries and cares all that remained was for us to lose faith, but it’s not easy to lose faith when you believe with all your heart. We admitted our confusion, but went and drank ourselves stupid anyway, just as the doctor suggested. He said the best way to forget is not to care. Only Jessica had the sense to see through his fog and understand his meaning.
from distance, but close up, it’s not the same
DIFFERENCE. DIFFERENT SENSE.
Thank you, I’m fine. But I miss you. I miss
everything, as if life now is everything and nothing.
It’s as if everything I knew has been forgotten,
but it’s impossible to forget. You walked this earth.
You touched this ground. You breathed this air.
I’m fine, but everything that made sense makes no sense
any longer. I am filled with emptiness. I breathe but die.
I REMEMBER
Looking for my poem
in the Sunday newspaper
It took a lot of looking
We were at Waterloo, it was a sunny day
THE OVERHEARD SPEECH OF CHINESE LEADERS
everyone is here
all is harmony
these three words
here is harmony
everyone is all
these three words
