And If He Had Been Wrong For Me – Jul 19

yet he was there, and all my thirst
gatherd in the thought of him that year,
a tall liquid presence of the man,
a river running in the sound of him,

sun dazzle in the shallows, shadows
in the pool beneath the rocks.

It is a place of early lonely thought,
impatient revery of a cool green.

It is a glass of water
ever just pourd for me, a memory
kept silent come to speak.

-Robert Duncan
