expression ( word, dance, text, image, story, music, poetics)

Hopes for the blog:
offer up the wild intersectedness of lived experience and engage others in creative, expressive, perhaps irreverant, hopefully playful, and respectful encounters....
enact kindness
create moments of pause for disclosure, discovery, stillness

the shape of this space



nestled
near the telephone
a makeshift chair creates a corner
I fold myself into the curve of its shoulder
and breathe in
the sound of your voice

    I guess that when the phone rings you are simply compelled to answer it then eh?

    wm-- nice connection, there. here's the thing: my son and i chat on the phone on sundays, and therein lies the difference...I WANT to be on the phone with my son. other calls, not so much....
    thanks for the visit.

    Reminds me of all the calls made when courting. Just doesn't quite have the same effect these days :)

    I love the 'softness' in this and how each word is like a breath.

    A tranquil corner for a private conversation; not common these days when everyone feels compelled to to share their conversations with everyone else on the train.
