“When you see the extent to which people try, like the tremors of a ballet dancer, or the intensity of a pianist, or a mural containing the details of tiny little people making up the background-- you see the vulnerable extension of our private selves. There is an element inside us and it wavers between beauty and madness. You know it when you see it, like a hyperactive atom bouncing in a tube. It is like trying, really trying, and when we do, we are in our most honest forms. When we reach, we expose the contents of the human spirit. The more often we see it spill, the more encouraged we are to go further. And we can go further than others, in joyous competition. After all, it is called the human race, no?”

“Loneliness is an organ we call the brain,
So if you want out, good luck baby.
Go towards something. Foolishly.
The loneliness will eat us anyway,
But you can change how you taste:
A rock that never does
Or a twinkle that tried.”

Processing a tragedy, and/or a little hungry--
Like a wild animal, in the middle.

“Live in the stretch.
Extending your limbs out,
In a burn, in a hollow trespass,
Tremoring, a second away from a shout,
And keep going after it hurts-- the animal won't.
Live in the stretch.
It is the only way to know anything in the dark.
It is the only way to feel on fire.
The animals eat well, but we can pass the mark.
And if beavers land on the moon, this poem has expired.”

“I'd like to say that I was here and left tired, sore, and splintered.
That I fell in love every New Years and cried before the winter.
If earth is mostly water, life isn't about the rocks you save.
I have tears on my stop sign, my neighbor has diamonds on his grave.”
