      • Here, hide inside me
      • Wherever You Are Is Called Here
      • In Praise of Water
      • I will fall in love exactly about a million times and then I will die
      • What you get is to be changed more and more each glistening minute
      • Mi madre bordaba lágrimas desiertas en los primeros arcoiris
      • Its all roar and cry and suck and snap
      • The rest is a faint echo
      • And the vacuum cleaner swallows its bag
      • Forgetting and Remembering in the Same Instant
      • A need so great and deep it can never be swallowed
      • I cannot of course come back. Not to this. Never.
      • I was much further out than you thought
      • Ribs of disaster curving their assertion among the tentative haunters
      • Creation {of Melancholy Fate} by Supreme Being
      • Remember, ours is the animal eye,
      • I've been here my whole life still I'm somewhere else.
      • And its charms have a punch. And its hunches have arms.
      • Last night I dreamt again of thrashing and you on the far shore
      • Some of us just can't help ourselves—a little warmth, and we're goners.

Last night I dreamt again of thrashing and you on the far shore

Last night I dreamt again of thrashing and you on the far shore. Oil on canvas, 44" x 57"

No hesitation naming this painting, whose title comes from the Dean Young poem While You Were at the Doctor's in the 2012 Copper Canyon Press book Bender. (Fabulous!) This is also being prepared for my opening in 2 weeks.
