...makes me grow really high, really high, like a really tall thing, say a sunflower
Things that saved this week from the brink of oblivion:
1) ultimate frisbee
it had been too damn long
2) the arrival of Cole Swenson's Book of a Hundred Hands
just in time
ex:
THE MECHANICS OF THE HAND
Some natural ways it lies, for instance on a desk, are due
not so much to mental states as to the mechanics of the hand.
Locked in.
While your face was taught
to hold itself, the hands, electric, spread. While speaking always stand outside,
instinctive means it angles toward
the natural inheritance of all beautiful things: balance,
precision and extremes: These
innate positions including
(in adversity)
a wholly involuntary outward mobility
(the whole body tends to move out
of limb and feature--
Picture
A woman fleeing a burning building
A man with his hands on fire
The basal knuckles are always more likely
to bend forward. We close in, understanding
like phantom pain
can lodge itself in any finger and wait
OF AN ALPHABET OF STEPPES
after the finger alphabet of George Dalgarno, 1680
But after he was gone, I began to consider
that the "I" floats above the middle finger
and the deaf with their kites
and the "O" above the next
who touched
the "E" above the index--note
it's the vowels that live in air
and the continents disturbed
rationally across extremity.
Readiness
is distillation
among strangers.
3) Lisa's plan for Erin's success
ex:
1. make a schedule for work and stick to it.
2. stop being ocd about time
3. spend time with friends
ex: lisa, anna, slonim 5
4) um, this:
5) phone conversation with anne
6) finally being physically and metallically balanced
7) ending in a cathartic release that in turn resulted in a nibbly-delicious exciting future prospect. hehe.
Well, I guess this is a bit of a Shakespearian moment, as in,
all's well that ends well
