she said "purdy", well, i thought of al . . .





 look down on myself from above
then front and both sides

it's really not very surprising
that love spoken by my voice
should be when I am listening


and how explain that?

a still pool in the forest
remains a sort of half-love
that is akin to kindness


excerpted (and reassembled) from al purdy "listening to myself"
