i went into absorption for months... upon returning to words i found they had atrophied--like spotting an ant through a keyhole. they came so sparely, one by one... wondering why i wished to violate the silence that so blessed me. so they sat next to one another in lotus position, and poems were emanated. they became more and more voluminous, to the point of daily. as if being summoned by a spell...slowly poured into a glass and spilled into a pair of lips. to be reabsorbed by her mouth.
