- to james taylor

to say
         it has all been written
is true
         when one listens to james 
he's written
         through it all - and when

it all ends - as it all ends - we know

where to go -
"do me wrong, do me right"*
is the epitome of my need last
night & there's always my most
cherished
         - where i always thought
i would see you again.

my list gets
         longer each year - still there
is fire and there is rain* and there

is sweet desperation and poetry

- there is
always poetry in songs
in love,
           in walks,
                          in me
