Wise brevities
you can read
in one breath.
And while two
entries exist
on most pages,
part of me
wanted each
individual poem
to stand alone,
be on a page of its own,
displaying that weight.
On the plus side,
the method used
allows for every piece
to up against each other,
chattering and echoing
and guiding and replying.
It's a dense and wondrous
journey, despite
the slim nature.
I might need
a decade to digest.
