I want to go out
into and
here I am
of. Every word
like silence
tells as much.

Beautiful as an object, and beautiful poems. Alternately sad and funny, serious and lighthearted, simple and complex, everyday and profound. But always approachable, gentle, and universal. This is not a book to be read cover to cover, but to be savored slowly. It will unfurl with me for years to come.
When you get right down
to it, contraptions,
resemblances -- what
registers between
the wind and the windbell --
me. A ringing of
little stars. And heat,
like silence, like sounds
of children, encom-
passing...I don't know
where to leave off and
don't know as I do.

April 22, 2016Read Volume 1 on Caltrain during the spring quarter commuting to my first adjunct job last year. Read Volume 2 teaching in my second Spring quarter in between naps because I now have a car. I think Vol. 1 had more poems that were like woah let me read that again, but Vol II had more deep personal poems.
