Preludes to Kisses

Poem Commentary

Nature abhors a vacuum -- Beckawho?

Preludes to Kisses

never full, never empty
leaving particles
blurred to add to confusion 
memories leave the mind like a vacuum
floating, ceasing to be
    a headache 
    take a pill


1983

Down Uno

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
