"              ... once it made

music it might still make

music if I become a new way of

listening"

"Someone is born somewhere now."

"the end is always cheerful
says the day hurrying alongside as you splice
through it, as you
feel your astonishing aloneness grow funnily
winged--who are you going to be
someday, who are you going to be when all this clay flowing through you has
finally become
form"

"We breathe, and / what we call / the next moment between us, / where I take your empty hand and / we start home, / emptied of attempt and emptied of / survival skill, / is love."
