The Best Left
Time alone allows for reflection
upon events that flee too fast:
...
Dearest, it's time to lift our glass
without recourse to guile.
This moment too shall pass
in just a little while.

A Modern Paradox
A man of letters can only be true
to his art or his culture
...
On Being Human

a breeze wafting over the moon's
rosy haze and traffic noise fading
to a muted roar there
...

They sit stupefied, the mad.
Staring into some middle place
...

They say a chain's only as strong
as its weakest link:

the word's too oft' profaned
...
Paean to Love
Oh, that I could offer
a proper paean to our love
...
