"January Afternoon, With Billie Holiday ...The foolish old songs were right, the heart does, actually, ache from trying to push beyond itself... all that can be imagined; space is not enough... Desire has no object, it simply happens, rises and floats, lighter than air— but she knows that. ... tomorrow is something she remembers."
Lisel Mueller

January 1, 1970
