there are absences
the size of a tear in
your coat pocket,
manageable to a
degree until
something slips,
is lost, and no
amount of backtracking
and scanning the
pavement of
your memories
will retrieve that
abandoned feeling
.

That’s a nice view on blogspot. Hmm. You blog everywhere, don’t you? There’s a song about “getting around’–that seems appropriate. I’ll try to find it.
nah, blogger.com was my first platform. at that time, it was the easiest.

Dropped by for a “Y” fix today and was not disappointed. Beautiful poem and wonderfully textured photo.
aww, and you are an “old friend” – my mom wondered where you were…thank you for the compliments!
