Sitting on the austere steps of the Kremlin We drank Stolichnaya in silence; listened to St. Basil’s Bells stoic ringing until Our sun rose pale over Moscow / Beauty is created when I press your mulatto skin to mine. / We shift. You move, and as you’re moved you move me.

Here at this End (a eulogy)
Close to this end you were a free-spirit caged / Body-bound parlyzed, muted and muzzeled, entombed / locked alive and screaming from a keyless cell.

Love... the way I lie.
I lie- / Not from a beating heart, bleeding and breaking always / for the cynic in all of us, for the human spirit's relentless wane between birth and death,

Michael Stipes (losing our religion)
Life is bigger- than you; me- / you treading mire / choosing these heavy eyed tragedies over religion
