two images & an ee cummings poem.

[rednickel]

the whole of an evening:



me & my niece on easter. she's dressed as a chick. i have no clue why, it seems a rabbit would have been apropos. but she totally pulls it off:



--

since feeling is first

since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
- the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis.
