It is little consolation now to think that two days ago we stood on the roof of Vermont - at a roadside pulloff looking out over green glacial spaces of slow time mountains rounded like a woman's thighs and soft light Here the snow has just stopped falling and even at midnight the low clouds trap the white glow of the city making it something like day I think we understand each other I think we need not say what just happened or what may happen next We were there and we saw the old year will soon be past We will go on We will last even as we stumble off to bed hungover from the holidays and sick with dreams |
