2. Talking through Walls

conversation, early work, life, meaning, poetry, ways of knowing

May 29, 1995
for J.S.
Tracing the patterns in friends’ talk
hurts.  I need to listen as close 
to their echoes as I listen to my own
guarded words.  Defining the walls
that make up this cave:  shadows dance
auguries divined in tortoise shells.
(from “My Book of Changes, 1994-1995)
