ADJACENCY
Writings by Gary Michael Dault
based on Lee Ka-sing's photographs

122--A Night Still Young
The night is still young (and incendiary) in Lee Ka-sing's photograph. In my poem, A Palm Quickens, the night is moving along rapidly, is indeed hectic with consummation:
A Palm Quickens
she falls back
onto her bed
in a drift of sugar
he stays as vertical
as a candle flame
she has one marble foot
on the sudden floor
both are astonished
at his being
permitted to see her
in this solitude
needful
shiny as a fish
he drinks
just as the water
is running away
she inhales
ocean air
her palm quickens

Coffee and Tea 鴛鴦偶寄

Istanbul
I : A Room with a View
All quiet
Sunday morning rises
Istanbul
Hear call to prayer
Across the Golden Horn
The Valens Aqueduct
Suleymaniye, Fatih, six minarets
Penciling your silhouette
Young Pamuk had another view
From Cihangir
Over looking Üsküdar
Eminönü, Topkapi, the Blue Mosque
Under hustling Galata Bridge
A hundred fishermen compete
The fine art of fishing
“What’s for dinner tonight?”
That evening
We ate a Black Sea turbot
A flat spiky fish
Swam in rock salt

They coagulated into a bristling reef of notes-to-himself, a reef upon which he was more likely to run aground than to sail into some exotic port of achievement. His ideas were making him old. They came to him now as taunts rather than escape hatches or--as they used to be--intimations of mastery..
