Awake at 3 a.m. and a train in the distance -- feeling like the only man awake in the entire world. You know the feeling . . .
Dark hills beyond the shore, the world
is asleep. . . The dreamer likes awake
in his bed, listening to a train
braking in San Luis Obispo, California;
slowing through town, picking up speed,
and rattling away toward the southern
oblivion. . . It is cold and foggy
in the sleeping world.
A heart awake is a terrible thing,
like distance squeezed into a glove.
Welcome!
The poems in this beautifully bound book are a result of over twenty years of observations. Observations of the world around us and on the telecommunications network. All of the hate, love, heroism, disasters, and those who help.
Beautif
like distance squeezed into a glove", this is very deep, indeed. Blessings to you, Kevin!
