Peaceful be thy silent slumber
Peaceful as thy pure sweet life
—On a tombstone at Lafayette Cemetery #1, New Orleans
From a weekend down in New Orleans.
Hancock Street, Brooklyn.
Working from home
Just exactly as I remember
Every word
Every gesture
How could it all fall in one day
Were we too sure of the sun?
And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:
Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.
