“…I wanted to propose writing as a material manifestation, an embodiment, of desire for reality.”

Eventually, I could no longer swallow the tension.
Clouds held brightness while leaves fell like stars.

Unmeasurable: the patience of a ripening orange.
By all estimates, I am failing.

The idea of references are spacial.
A Farmer’s Almanac predicts an endless summer.

Strokes of lines turn a phrase.
Waiting in the shadows, salvation.

All the suspense of being on your knees, heaven spread.
