Obituary
She walked in sunlight upon the air.
new buds became blossoms in her path.
Her kindness she scattered everywhere,
on her constant pain, she spent her wrath.
My dear friend, Suzanne, last Sunday left
to join other angels, share her glee.
Ambassador, perhaps, to the cleft
that divides skies from mountains and sea.
Sisters, we thought, in a distant life.
Our lives today were

Inside
Inside
Bottled up inside
Are the words i never said, The feelings that I hide,
The lines you never read.
You can see it in my eyes, Read it on my face
trapped inside are lies of the past I can't replace.
With memories that linger, won't seem to go away.
Why can't i be happier?
Today's a brand new day.
Yesterdays are

Goodby To Prometheus
I am cutting ties
that I knotted to a faraway soil.
Exiled no longer at the tiller
of a long beached fishing boat
that bobs only on the legends
of ancient waves.
Those fluent in soul-breathing,
the Celtic poets,
those wind-chiming lyricists,
are pulling me
to the bottom of Lake Erie
where drowned sea-captains still quote
what the Irish once wrote.
And here’s me, even today
caught by

To See Clearly
I had bought my first pair of glasses
I stood at Egertorget
I could see the castle clearly
I could see the train station clearly
I couldn’t see clearly before
I had followed her to the train station
I had given her a ring; a ring to bond us
I had given her a key; the key to my apartment
I had given

Goodby, My Best Friend
It was during the Korean War
Mother came and said
Avoiding my gaze
We don’t have enough rice left
Even for people
Even for people?
Meaning?
Not for my best friend?
That night I couldn’t sleep
With all kinds of thought
Knowing what Mother meant
Next day, old man came
With wrinkles all over his face
Put a muzzle around Kwedong
My best friend
And took her away
Feeling numb
I watched

Goodby Betty,Don'T Remember Me
My hands spade the shovel - spay the rooted grave.
Earth is impassive. Why won’t life relent?
The silver blades south for the black plastic bag
swallowed by west winds, wrapped in a blanket
that is olive green. Under the sun’s harrowing husk
I peel away the last bit of crust yet unpeeled.
Pink scab, raw, refusing to heal.

My Loves Goodby
My Blood is hot like the summer sun
sitting on this cliff edge this is where
it began with bottle of pills and an knife
As the water flow past below my feet
I cried in defeat "Why is this happening to me"
and as I said goodbye a voice came calling
to me say "My dear

Goodby Dear Friend
Today I lost a friend of mine.
Her life was long and sweet.
She never said that she was sick ;
was happy every time we'd meet.
If she knew all her friends were sad ;
she'd be so very doggone mad,
she'd never speak to us again.
