it was you who showed me how to get in here and what to think to do it this way like a miserable fantasy to anguish and to marvel at uniquely and together like the way I am here alone with words bewildered--who cares what the words say if they do not attach themselves to love; who cares when the words only become warm in the minds of people that they affect and never just becasue of where they are put

from the decorated outside you can sit and sip and look at words and the reason you enjoy them is because there is no surrounding on your part of the tears or scars that put them there. this is where anyone can cheer on anyone producing things based on hurt that could kill you if you were prone to letting it

I scratch words on the hollowness and know that it is the echoes coming back that give them their fullness

but because there is no fullness derived from your bigness, love, this is not my miracle

    Very deep and challenging. Makes me think of a lot of stuff. Like how words connected to love and words connected to the soul can put you in danger - and so sometimes it seems safer to stand well back - glib is safe. One thing I respect very strongly about you Rollings is you are never glib nor safe.......

    deep like dropping a coin down into the well, and the splash that comes back (eventually) sounds ancient

    I loved this poetic observation that you made the other day...and I tried to use the feel of it in this poem...did you notice?
