It seems

our own impermanence is concealed from us.

The trees stand firm, the houses we live in

are still there. We along

flow past it all, an exchange of air.

-Rilke

 

Only the woman who has had to face despair is really

convinced that she needs mercy.

-Thomas Merton

 

I miss you, D.

 

Twenty years now
Where’d they go?
Twenty years
I don’t know
I sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they’ve gone

And sometimes late at night
When I’m bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin’ a ghostly white
And I recall
I recall.
