Lyrical fragments uncover latent meaning at every turn. Each inquiry disturbs a wider wreckage, admires the forensic light between subtle layers of unknowing.

YOUNG LETTUCE I can take it all, the withering of beans, flowers dying, with dry eyes I can see the potatoes being dug up, when it comes to those, I’m really tough. But young lettuce in September, just planted, still limp, in little moist beds, no.

Except Dems never undo Republican policies. They never returned the states to the Iran deal, climate summit etc after Trump.

INTIMATE I’m walking around the city in love, my reflection in pharmacy windows like Eve’s snake. You and I move quickly, searching for each other — clock hands coming together on the same number.

A bird flying on small shafts of sunlight suddenly penetrates us both. If I hadn’t found you I’d have had a hard time with the phone book — unsolvable algebra.

I wouldn’t have hung up. I’d have stood frozen in silence, a voice without words — a street without traffic.

But I did find you. It’s understandable, the snake in my body along all these sidewalks — because I don’t read the signs and billboards in this city, just the lit letters of your name.

Words for a Dead Friend Some nights, or whenever I meet up with the dead, facing out in long lines leading out of me, you are most alive among those still in sight: you cannot be killed in the living mind looking in

NIGHT AGAIN The sun goes down The moon rises It's night again! Alas, the stars Shine with frigid Ferocity The world, wildly Beautiful, gets Worse all the time We get better No, sadder Though more refined Through suffering And joy, don't we? At night it's the truth

We know enough not to ask for more than this world, its twinned blossoms of flower and snow — its feverish kisses, powdered masks, whirling dervishes and incestuous whims.

IN THE MORNING, BEFORE ANYTHING BAD HAPPENS The sky is open all the way. Workers upright on the line like spokes. I know there is a river somewhere, lit, fragrant, golden mist, all that, whose irrepressible birds can’t believe their luck this morning and every morning. I let them riot in my mind a few minutes more before the news comes.
