A poem from Luke
[Ed: Luke sent me this message: 'As promised
here is a piece of writing for Ben Web; just a short poem. It relates to
my time on Mykonos, October 23. My time there and the people I
encountered, allowed me to release the last chunks of pain and rage,
since then I have felt peace.'
Luke also sent me the photo: The Diving School today.]
the case of the white dove
end of season Cyclades church
deep candle pool
child-idol votives pressed in silver
litter at his feet
lost loved one passport photos
last day sea of grief
two ladies from Texas
softly saved emptiness
lost loved one shoreline pigeon
lightly deft on perch
