    Not all clouds fit over the ocean.Rain finds the lemon tree but rarely In California. Still a tree knows what to do,This act of holding still. I remember thatDrinking myself. The at first not wantingTo be wet, and then the wetness.Not holding still exactly, just holdingStill enough.

    … I've got to believeMy grief will end. I can’t see myself,I speak in panic outside a Malibu fishCounter, Pacific slippery as bed silk.My friend says she sees me anyway,Feeds me cold tinned juice. You’re rightHere. She's laughing as motorcycles roarPast as chrome American hog dazzlers.I’ll sing the worlds ‘til you remember them.
