1986-03-29 Joan – March

Saturday, March 29th, 1986

Joan – March Summer thunder – warm and moist Joan comes, is here, leaves. All my thoughts turn on these moments; love giving birth to itself in our eyes. Our minds follow, bemused at the changes. Hands and eyes, minds and hearts weaving… we talk, our fantasies on the edge of creation, our futures changing with every word. I’m not rational anymore. Slowly my priorities are sinking beneath her summer storm, warm rain of passion. I’m loosing track of time. Even now, after two hours, I wait filled with the ache of missing her and the joy that she will come again. gallagher 29 Mar 86 Irvine

               The light of burning bridges in every direction.
               While a greater darkness gathers around me.
               Fear crawls just beyond the fire’s light
               and this stump of a torch is small comfort, indeed.
               I hope I survive as well as Lise
               for I’ve surely gone to the edge,
               heart in hand, to jump.

Monday, March 31st, 1986 
                 I like to look at you, absorbing
                      every detail
                 of your face; the look in your eyes,
                 the lines that form when you smile.
                 And in your voice
                 I hear warmth and clarity;
                      the expression from your soul
                      ringing to the world like a clear bell.
                 Apart, my thoughts fly back to you
                 I see your picture and your letter,
                      and I smile.
                                    3/31 - 4/1/86
                                    Joan
