touching the hand of this stone
shaded rub-off speckles
silvered blue-green synonyms
silent
in the shivering shimmer-ballet
twirl
around the knuckle-swell warmth
noon
habitual
freedom returning
relaying clusters of tonal not-yet
described (thankfully)
and the unsaidness resembles birth in the frequent forms of hand
made
delivered interrelations
partitions expose dualness,
the duality of
persuasion's insinuating
faculties
improvised or imported
implanted into the scenery of sound and
indicative memory of predetermined speckled
spacing
of how they silhouette into fragmented clarity
re
call
ing
lingers an autumn-origami
hovers paralleling hanging
upon a reach reaching relegated garnish
of a momentum's isolated
trace
or: what the distance to disdain represents:
altered, an affirmation
forming
rigid reason, the logic abstaining frequent-feature focus
long term longing landing into where the
purity frames
itself
