Lise…— Copyright 1965-2008 by Dennis Gallagher —
The thought of her
is becoming magic.
Her eyes and skin
and spirit begin to pull at me
with an anticipation
born of love.
Smiles now burn at the thought of her
and the feeling inside
when she looks at me
is such a deep echo.

“Down beneath the fungus wars the world
will be a better place someday.”

Guinea pig with a fake rabbit’s tail attached to its
nose. It thinks its God.

Watching the guinea pig, like a child, over a barrier
in the garage.
– Emotional content:
Happy and watchful.
– Feeling upon awaking:
Silly … then connections occur to me re: Walford’s
maximum lifespan theory.

Thursday, March 7th, 1985 The candles burn
on a weekday afternoon.
Two years since I've seen this girl
and still the same magic with her.
We talk about being lifetime friends
and that slow smile burns inside me
a smile of confirmation, love and joy.
My sister, my friend.
The years pass and it doesn't matter
if they go forwards or back.
These friendships we have
are the only enduring touchstones
as our lives sweep us all
to our demise.
The candles burn ...
a day castoff from the everyday
a lifeboat on a sea
of nonsense.
