R.M. Dolin poem from 2015
Madness of Memories
The madness of May pushes
against my soul with the same veracity
Santa Annas press the past
into a pretext for right now.
And in the aftermath of madness,
memories we simultaneously treasure and
forge to forget, cascade forward in a
recurring sense something ominous is
about to happen.
From the R.M. Dolin novel, “Something Must Be Done.” Jake and Armando share a drink at the Al Azar while waiting for poker to start. Jake is convinced something ominous is afoot but Armando dismisses it as Jake suffering from the loss of Emelia.
