"Mist in its slow procession. The forest in
its hover. Made a sketch by distance.
Believing this beauty would be too much."

"Do you ever pretend
The sun is a golden grape someone left
In the sky, that you could pull it down off
Its vine and end the world, but you are
Merciful so you don’t"

"This is what love looks like sometimes, such care
with small tasks. Him altering this plastic bag, a little
performance art, our side of the counter full of awe."

"I had not thought such pain were possible
Again, not that particular pain.
It is the echo that is terrible —
To find one’s spirit can be bent again
Into that old and agonizing spiral"

"the half-life of fear is hatred or fatigue
I’m sleeping deep
more interested in joy than grief
or, at least, the place they meet"

"I think of all the eyes
not meant to see me.
When I was five I learnt how to
leave my body.
Now I seem to have a hard time
staying. Sometimes, I get stuck
in the hovering."

"This side-walking is a peripheral pursuit,
a deviation, a devotion to a countdown.
An unintentional collection of pebbles between
rubber grooves, that scratch a continual hymn
of shuffle-skip-stop, trip,
back-step."

"I swear that, in Gardena, on a moonlit suburban street,
There are souls that twirl like kites lashed to the wrists of the living
And spirits who tumble in a solemn limbo between 164th
And the long river of stars to Amida’s Paradise in the West."

"But the truth, even more, is that life is perpetually weaving fresh threads which link one individual and one event to another, and that these threads are crossed and recrossed, doubled and redoubled to thicken the web ..."
