"It's remarkable
that I long to write,
yet do not know what
to write, or to whom,
and yet--what an
unrelenting pleasure!--
paper, pen, ink and
sleepless nights give
more satisfaction than
sleep and reprose."

--Petrarch
(1304-1374) 
                
      
"One writes out of
one thing only--one's
own experience.
Everything depends
on how relentlessly
one forces from this
experience the last drop,
sweet or bitter
it can possibly give."

--James Baldwin
(1924-1987)


Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans.

For Kristy


 

I found you through souls expressed on a page

a hand that stretched from syllables and mutual experience

your words knew my heart, weighted, and broken

continuously reliving an experience that had long since passed

you brought me into the peacefulness of your survival

always holding me back from shattering my own glass

even as you yourself could not pick up all the pieces

we are always swelling and stretching beyond our boundaries

protecting ourselves and each other, if only from one another

we've been autumn and winter for so long, fearing the spring

because with it there comes a renewal where we accept only decay

we can't be only the seasons we love

but must also find ourselves in opposition

our hopes lie in "someday", where we must define ourselves again

unable to establish who we were if we were not fighting something

though I hold confidence in the strength of alliances and understanding

knowing that together we will always overcome.
