Time—
measured by how long it takes the wound to heal
and day—
night's waiting room

I have forgotten everything
but the echo of your name
reverberating like a bell that has ceased to toll










#19


There are no voices here.
They are gone.
Swept away.
Dissolved by silence.
Lost
there is only the beach.
There is only surrender
to the repeating wave.
Tonight the sea is in retreat
and black as the space
in which the world floats.
