Driving from Alhama de Granada. Through the deep plains, blue mountains up ahead. With heavy bruiser clouds rolling in,. We sped towards the city of Granada. Hoping to beat the storm,. Alfonso as ever at the wheel, (O Charon, Charon! Concha at his side, half-turned toward us. Huddled in the back, her whole face crinkling. With laughter at my stuttering translations. 8220;Clouds” -. I pointed through the window-. 8211; “storm” . Our little car was battered as we spoke,. Flung out on the air, a mile or so.

Saturday, October 30, 2004. Without meaning to betray you,. I have lifted your skirt. And in this renewed sky. Set my sun and moon and exhaled. Three castles of clouds. Your pockets. Will be good houses. For the gods, birds and perhaps. The occasional airplane. We cannot deny. The truth of how we are used. Beyond even our absolute. Imagination. With this thought,. I see you rearrange. All the carefully placed assemblies. To justify a smile- unfathomable. Before in your eyes of shock,. I take your face.

Monday, November 22, 2004. A Woman Leans In; Dark. I want to whisper. Into the space that draws you. To this pause between breathings. I want to hear. The hollow through my throat. Shake your eyes to see. A sign of all this. Gravity you resist with. Your anatomy locked in leaning. Lay its hands in you. And pull you in? Swelling in your womb? I want to ask how deep. And then to kneel to the meeting. I want to see if your eyes. Will follow me down. Or if I am. On a painting by Chika Yoshii. A part of every.

Wednesday, December 29, 2004. Osaka Christmas Night '04. Of all these lovers shine. Happy enough to give. It all away for the push. Of a body on a body. The train car lunges. And we all relax. We crash with one. If we can't believe. Resulting. "I love you" is. Another way to know. This breath we breathe. Posted by jerry at 6:36 AM. I have felt this. Miles have we traveled. And corners have we turned. To meet this chance. By chance again;. Through one another,. In each other's pockets. The only trace,.
