As he falls
descends to his knees
and like water drops dark
resist it never ever
shrieking lulls
bound to death not
partaken of
the scurrying life forms
His tears turn dark rains
parts … pieces … something
unknown what is
dissension
It dies here
it touches the living
the living becomes a shoot
of new death that begets
itself ... more parts pieces
something
culminating to endlessness
nothing—voided
black
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
