Favorite Quote:
"And in the midst of our dying, as we rise from the organic and sink back ignominously into the organic, it is a glory and a privelege to love what Death doesn't touch." -Donna Tartt, 'The Goldfinch'


I knit myself into the fabric of you, 

twisting and turning and hoping

that your immune system accepts the invasion. 

I am made of glass, and you of cinders. 

The wind picks me up and I become it

I am the cloud of breath from your lips and I am the floaters in your eyes

I exist only in the pink-edged daisies, wet from the weight of the morning. 

Take my hand and I will show you

that you too were born from stars.
