“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.” — Amanda Gorman
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.
