...collage of everything before you, frangipani
and escargot, five-for-a-dollar boxes
of macaroni, and French cherries
from an old woman in Auvergne
who insisted on the gift
because it was so marvelous
to see a woman traveling alone.
“Today in my heart
a vague trembling of stars
and all roses are
as white as my pain.”

“Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art....
It has no survival value;
rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.”

“Books are the quietest and most constant of friends;
they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors,
and the most patient of teachers.”

Conrad Kiesel, 'The Lesson'
flowers disappeared
they are in the same
state of non-being
as Emily Dickinson
We the dead have conversation
in our gardens
about our lack of
existence.
