JANUARY
A Cold and Wet Month With Bright Days
Here in the Seattle swamp I turned 28 and Jennifer gave me books for our library. We watched Tiny Vipers and listened to the Whale Bones. We went to the zoo and watched the apes for hours. We looked at pictures of Puget Sound loggers and Chinese salmon canners at the Henry Gallery and went to the shore and electrified our faces with the cold wind and water. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were suddenly crushed to death. We ate perfect wood fired pizza and drank a lot of coffee and read a lot of Kafka and talked about his reasons for living.
