Oppen at 100






















The planet’s
Time.

Blood from a stone, life
From a stone dead dam. Mother
Nature! because we find the others
Deserted like ourselves and therefore brothers. Yet

So we lived
And chose to live.

These were our times.

{Ends}

George Oppen is a hundred later this month, and I salute him.
