I feel an intense emotion each time I see a public bench dedicated to someone who does not use it anymore. What a wonderful way to honour someone’s memory.

before we disappear
under the weight of the tide we will
have been a wounded season
a memory, a story told and forgotten
I withdrew from the world
to listen to the memory of
body and earth:
a spot on the sun
disturbed the order of the world
I was trying to escape
one one leg
fleeing
hobbling
