On the sign:
MENDOCINO MEMORY for Haruko
Half moon cold and low above the poplar tree and sweet pea petals pink and white/what happened on this personal best night for casual stars and silky constellations streaming brilliant through the far forgetful darkness of the sky
I found the other half above the pillow where you lay asleep face to one side with nothing in this world or the next to hide
Berklee’s poetry Walk was laid in October 2003 along Edison Street between Shattuck and Milvia Streets. The route includes 128 metal plates with excerpts from songs, each of which is related in one way or another to the city of Berkeley.
The current sign features a poem written by the American poet June Jordan (1936-2002), who was an activist on issues of race, gender and immigration. Jordan was a professor of English, Gender, and African American Studies at UC Berkeley from 1989-2002.
