Sonnet: Permission Denied
Your slideshow took me back to London, dynamite providing
occasional relief. Tableaux and historical fodder akin to
our visit to the military academy at West Point that summer
(you remember) when both of us were young, Venezuela not
at all on our minds in those days. Many eye-witness accounts,
mostly gleaned from science journals willed to local libraries,
stood the test of time. Be as frank as you like, if you please.
With the horizon at maximum eclipse, people looking for re-
lationships cruised the internet, supermarket bulletin boards.
Bird squawks and dog barks filtered into the concert hall.
Exploding eyes of house flies reminded us of home, down by
the sand, where the sea starts. The twins were standing tall,
posting your photo on the wall at Saint Vincent’s, negotiating
twists and turns of destructive love. Pretty to think so.
