“I know the placeI know the place.It is true.Everything we doCorrects the spaceBetween death and meAnd you.”
“Please let me know if I am not hereLet me know if I fail to find you thereFor before the dawn I leave the night behind meAnd before my heart I let you leave me behind.”
“Death in itself is nothing; but we fear.To be we know not what, we know not where.”
“When we open ourselvesyou yourself to me and I myself to you,when we submergeyou into me and I into youwhen we vanishinto me you and into you IThenam I meand you are you.”
“I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it. We're a knowledgeable family.”
“Although I cannot see your faceAs you flip these poems awhile,Somewhere from some far-off placeI hear you laughing--and I smile.”
