    papa’s old diary…
    my wedding date
    circled in red

    train journey—
    the mustard fields
    take me home

    headache again
    viewing the moon
    with the dog

    lovemaking…
    the scent of musk
    after rain

    incommunicado…
    her neurons enter
    a black hole

    extraterrestrial
    all this conversation
    with Alexa

    Outside my bedroom window, stands the royal poinciana tree. Its flaming orange blossoms have always inspired me to set up my easel. With the changing season, it stands bare, a single leaf clings to the branch, heedless of the wind and rain, fluttering, but still holding on.

    I marvel at its tenacity. It reminds me of you. How you fought and held on desperately till the very end.

    feuillemort…
    cedar trees circle
    the cemetery

    long flight…
    a stranger
    becomes a friend

    looking…
    the looking glass
    looks at me
