One clover, and a bee,/And revery./
The revery alone will do

Poet

    That’s how I think of London. Someone
jonesing for rain until five in the morning,
someone jonesing for ruin.

London Poem
 

    Death made quite an entrance—a drunk stepping
down the staircase, a body thumped, thawed, dissolved
into the ground.
