5/1/07:
January rain.
Your face looking back at me.
The warmth in your eyes.
12/1/07:
She holds the infant,
its head soft against her cheek,
inhaling skin, hair.

The photo
While you are gone, missing your voice
I turn often to your speaking face.
14/1/07:
My dead friend. And you,
the living friend so like him.
My soul is twice blessed.
***
The view from Down Under
America wakes
and comes online, we can tell.
MySpace gets clunky.
12/1/07:
The tidal river.
A black arrow strikes the shore:
sudden cormorant.
19/1/07
My mind has blanked out.
It's the heat. It gets to me.
My brain is melting.

Goddess Exhibition, Art Gallery of NSW
As we wait in line
Krishna embraces Radha
and music begins.
Green Tara
Smiling serenely
she makes a gesture of giving,
dangling one gilt leg.
