ask me what’s here
and I will tell you
how naked life is

uncertainty (13 March 2011)
23 MayI am standing
on the precipice
looking
the tidal wave is slower
than you think
but the momentum
the momentum … how is it
that chaos sounds so deep
like the earth
the earth shifted
into a completely new
configuration
I remember the first time
death met me –
losing a best friend
can make a religion crumble
and all prayers
meaningless
efforting (13 March 2011)
2 Maywhat an effort to hold you
in a certain light and way
how you fall short
every time
the slow pulse (11 March 2011)
2 MayI am yielding to the pulse
that does not bolt out the door
an avalanche use to make tracks here
but I am sensing the glacial shift
holding the land together
for the time it takes to melt
I do not (11 March 2011)
2 Mayas soon as you said
I do not
I relaxed
my gut had already told me
before you could
unspoken prayer (11 March 2011)
2 Mayevery cell I ever knew
has lost its voice
and every molecule of energy
is holding on
to that unspoken prayer
