Brahma lying on the lotus blinks
Ah, another universe
Brahma lying on the lotus blinks
Ah, another universe

Ah, another universe

A man of reassuring bulk
filled the bar room door,
hesitated would not be
the right word. He was
a force unto himself,
waiting for a right moment
to do whatever was next in
his day now that it was
coming to an end in
the North End Tavern where
names are irrelevant,
where size does matter.
where drinks are bought,
shared with a friendly crowd.

My jealous grief brooks no kindness
From family friends or strangers
I stand carefully quietly alone
With no wish to slow or speed time
Since hours and days mean so little
With this interminable loss
I could neither hide nor fully enter

Her weariness
An element of her
Wardrobe
Downcast eyes
The end of love
Leaves ghosts
In secret corners
Bedroom whispers
She almost hears
Unable to sleep
Through any night

Just beyond the boat yard
Its crane’s obeisance
To unknown goddesses
Gray mist sails smoothly north
Follows some seasonal sign
With no possibility of blue sky
In the merger of fog and bay
Where darkness and light
Coalesce in an opaque reality
