Extracts

alone in hotel bed
lovemaking
on each channel
sky stained red
again
which way didn't you come

in the hour when
blue spine of the hills
meets the red
of the sunset
i wish i still loved you

in other men's vowels

when i
walked into
the pull of
your liquid eyes of
the seduction of
your voice
the other paths were
(if not for ever
at least temporarily)
closed
now cut loose
adrift
i brush off cobwebs
from old paths and
scan environment
for chances
and prospects
and only now and then
i stop startled
hearing your voice
in other men's
vowels
