I have been scratching at air
since I was a child,
and have had the good fortune
of feeling into words
that have fallen out
of thin blue nowhere–
And these words
I have gathered,
or to put it more accurately,
they have gathered me
into a collection of stories
intended to bask
in the unbridled continuum,
rivals to no one,
as they assimilate “I”
into the bluest breath of want
upon a softly kissed dream.
