Well, actually, your friends might relish that power. Anyway, welcome to the alien terrain in which my partner and I find ourselves. I live at Heathcote Community and in [...]]]></description>

He points out porpoises off in the chop.
I would miss them in favor of the
ocean of umbrellas
and the kid torturing sand crabs.
Porpoises capering black against the foam
but it’s the colorful plastic that draws the eye&#8212;
bikinis and boogie boards.
He points out porpoises and
soon I count eight
fishing by frenetics.
It’s just that simple,
eat and play.

Nearly all of the adult members of Heathcote take turns cooking dinners, which we share [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;re a cheap shoe,
a K-Mart ingenue,
white sole, synthetic smile,
sloppy laces fated to fray,
sloppy canvas that bleeds my socks.
Always complications!
I&#8217;ve been lucky enough
to find just my size
and then the surprise of
an enjoyable fit.
A one season shoe,
no presumptuous spring
in your step,
bouncing back from
the perils of pavement.
You give in at the toe, heave ho.
And I out grow, and,

		<description><![CDATA[It’s a brute and it’s abrupt,
concrete step, cold in summer,
4  a.m. Geneva. Sterile gowns are
being unloaded beside me.
I guess  they’ve learned to leave
the grieving alone on this shift.
It’s  the most complete thought I’ve
had in an hour. If I don’t take the  next
breath, the next moment won’t have
to come, the one without [...]]]></description>

Let’s banish Earl Grey in
favor of darjeeling
but  bring back the
bergamot when the
window moon sings
lavender,  orange peel and steam.
Candles from your “used” box,
red, peach,  lime, cobalt colors,
sit on saucers from the
set your mother  gave&#8211;
If she only knew.
It’s a clawfoot kettle,
a tapwater  Niagara
spills, rage into resignation,
passion into peaceful
poolfullls  of surrender.

on my desk like a sandwich  board
advertisement.
I want to shrink down and crawl under  it,
camping in my ticking tent. Constellations and
bug spray.
Addah  Belle knew me. She could
look at me and tell. She could tell my
future.  In her time women married.
