Some Time: Poems 1970 - 1980

Written as a daily practice from March of 2000 to July of 2001, REAL has a meditative intensity as it gives both the spectacular and the ordinary moments of daily life an equal attention. This is a deep, long poem, not for those addicted to the surface pleasures of the quick cut. Each section is seventeen lines and certain themes return again and again - the ocean, relations between men and women, small animals such as cats and owls, lemon yellow and various blues.
