For Absolution
Rising again at night under a half-lit moon,
past sleep and the morning still hours away,
I find my way in darkness, following an old habit,
to the working place I have made for myself
beneath the praying roofbeams of this house.
From her dreams, the woman who cares about me
moves to the hollow shape of myself left behind
and rests her hand in the place I last was.
The sleeping dog yawns and growls beneath his breath
The jade cat opens its eyes and stares.
What fears or wearinesses keep me from my sleep
I couldn't say. Some unfinished business of my life,
some imagined or long-forgotten sin, those old regrets
we're never done with until they're done with us.
The interest we pay on debts we can't remember.
I lean back in my chair and light the reading lamp,
take from the shelf whatever book comes easily to hand.
I'm too tired to read. I hold it for comfort's sake,
for something familiar and unchanged, unchanging,
for a sense of time and place in the drowsing world.
Here there is a kind of absolution, a sanctuary.
From here I can hear everything. The slow ticking
of the kitchen clock and the refrigerator's quiet hum
keep a lazy rhythm against which I can set my own
and lay those older voices one by one in their proper place
until I am forgiven everything -for tonight at least-
and forgive everything that needs it, too, from me.
And give a certain thanks to all the other days and nights
that brought me here and made me what I am:
a man, past sleep, waiting for morning and the light.

Bookmark this page, install a new ink cartridge in your printer and buy a few reams of paper. You're going to be surfing these pages for some time.

Clicking here will take you to another of his web-sites, knowth.com,

and clicking here will take you to yet another web-site where you can read the entire manuscript of "The Science of Getting Rich" by Wallace D. Wattles, the book that inspired the film "The Secret"
A veritable treasure trove!

A Drunk in a Bar in Illinois
Lord, Lord, Aunt Rhoda
how we'd like to hear your singing now.
The cattle are brown and white in the pastures,
the foxes whistle between the green fields.
I am old enough now to be surprised
to taste Christmas in a bottle of whiskey,
remembering (before
I became slick and city)
how you gave us each a snowflake to taste
last thing at winterblack night.
Old enough to fall asleep
to your singing about Bethlehem and (seems
I haven't heard the word for years now)
how the whole God-blessed city
shone like a star in your voice.
Seems like only yesterday that
who was it again? died and
in a minute I'll recall just who.
