“(from A Love Story, Eight Takes)

As it turns out, there is a wrong way to tell this story.

I was wrong to tell you how multi-true everything is,



when it would be truer to say nothing.

I've invented so much and prevented more.



But I'd like to talk with you about other things,

in absolute quiet. In extreme context.



To see you again, isn't love revision?

It could have gone so many ways.



This just one of the ways it went.

Tell me another.”
