 Excerpt

Hands of the Clock


Beloved, when I'm with you

the hands of the clock tremble.

Your beauty stuns them

and their raison d'etre disappears through a crack in time


like the intoxicated bee whose ecstatic nectar-drinking

made him forget to fly before the lotus blossom closed for the evening.


I too am in No Man’s Land after tasting you.


Like the hands of the clock, your beauty has stopped a thing within me.


I only seem fit to write rogue love poems

and sing tavern songs of intoxication and wonder.


Please give me another job

because, like the clock hands, my own raison d'etre


seems lost in the crack between waking and dream,

that majestic ocean of silence

stretching past infinity—


holding a silly bubble afloat

until it is no more.
