Our path is so mysterious….<\/p>\n

The way between worlds
\ninvisible….<\/p>\n

Looking back invites
\nDisaster:<\/p>\n

Old worlds are hungry
\nFor fresh meat
\nLike demons long
\nunfed.<\/p>\n

Slipping onward:<\/p>\n

Golden spires on pearl bases;
\nGreen silk in evening candlelight;<\/p>\n

The mist burns by morning
\nSun;<\/p>\n

The birds eat quickly…<\/p>\n

And sing….

When I hadn’t heard from Susanne for a few months last September, I sent an e-mail. In late February I learned from her husband, Andrew, that she had passed away soon after being diagnosed with cancer at age 61. He has shared Susanne’s last poem with me, and given permission to share it here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":107280,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[182],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-107278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-poetry-format"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=107278"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107278\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/107280"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=107278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=107278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
