• January 6 - note: I'm still having trouble writing this year correctly.
• January 6 - "what I know of you / fits well in my cupped hand / it's all there is."
• January 7 - " Januarys grace is the slowly rising plum of smoke from the fireplace / chimney against the dark blue sky of a children's picture book."
• January 9 - "What do you suppose / the dead take with them / memories caramelized by years / of turning, sautéed in the juices / thank make up life?"
• January 10 - "Venation Blinds have great dexterity... they align themselves so well / precise as the feet of a marching brand / white spats going up and down / in perfect cadence.
• January 10 - quote: "The late poems are the ones / I turn too first now ... they are made of words that have come the whole way" W.S. Merwin - Worn Words from The shadow of Sirus.
• January 16 - add the word pellucid to my word list - admitting the passage of light, transparent or translucent . Transparently clear in style or meaning.
