So, I suppose now I have a website.

I wrote this poem 16 years ago, in grade 9; what was I feeling? Who did I read, and when, and why? I am flipping through old things tonight and feeling very, funny.

They were young and always beautiful-

She, a model most of her life, a graceful perfectionist.

He, in forestry, of hyper intelligence.

After she died he mourned her, slowly, but not very carefully,

though with her grace, 

he dismantled himself. 

At his funeral I could see them slow dancing alone in the kitchen. 

I could see them outside of myself, outside of the Universe, outside of those moments that we used to quantify as whole,

together.

I could see everyone then, 

and I could see it all so clearly. 

(With but a moments notice,

the softest gust

becomes a blow.)

Excited to finish up editing the rest of these soon

Photographed the beautiful, warm, and talented Brooke Manning when I was in Toronto last.

Brooke owns the amazing store Likely General and also is a musician under the moniker LOOM.

If I cannot

sing it out of me 

I will let the words

write themselves

silently
