What’s in the book
The contents are divided into five sections, plus a prelude:
Part One Poems written before and during my time in Tokyo.
Sample poem:
A heartbeat quickens
It awakens me nights,
this ominous sound.
I feel my limbs ache
and I grow short of breath.
The ground is not shaking;
the rhythm is within me,
running out of control…
Part Two Poems about the end of a relationship.
Sample poem:
14 March 2013
The last days
of an uncertain era
I feel the moments
slowly receding
into an uncertain past
that I am glad to leave behind
but wish I could do over
and get right this time
