around
the edges of this city
walls
charged with
the poverty of ideas

The causeway here
in IJsselmeer
retrieves
lifelong recurrent dream of driving
to the horizon,
as water laps such a road,
then covers it.

The sea rising in centimeters,
and I driving into submerged,
as if there were no other
possible.

The dreams always ends
still in motion,
no land in sight.

Fade to sedan,
wheels on road,
receding dorsal,
sluicing
forward.

gold river china
runs opaquely cinnabar
fishermen's stained knees


(september chongqing 2012)

absolutely                   not

a s    i m p o r t a n t    as


grey sky scullery
scudding crew on dark river


you are here.
no. you are not.

describe awake?
one oar

listen
lose it
repeat
infinitely

grey skin of scull or
scalding light in dark river?

she told me
when I was away you had evening guests
cooked meat
drank wine

I can tell you now
love

are you there?
