“Sometimes the extract is not an erasure, But an expansion. It is not a cut, but a culmination. Not a gash, but a growth.”

“Sometimes the extract is not an erasure, But an expansion. It is not a cut, but a culmination. Not a gash, but a growth. Life has taken the suffix -ship, made it a verb, Taken a sound & given it momentum. That's what only words can do -- Prod us toward something new & in doing so, move us closer -> together Perhaps our relationships are the very make of us, For fellowship is both our nature & our necessity. We are formed primarily by what we imagine.”
