Captures that desperate clutch after being apart for a while.

It is an all consuming clutch. And we were up in the mountains... it was quieter. I could feel more

Thank youuuu! Yeah, clearly I absorbed quite a bit in my crash course. I'm really digging the voice aspect now, too. Bring so much more life to it!

So many incredible dualities and precious paradoxes in your poem. These lines might be my favorite, though it's hard to choose:

"The way I breathe reverence

beyond what I believe

I am."

Oh, and yes, I almost forgot. Spectacular reading. I'm noticing some synchronicities...I recently recorded one that has some similarities, and then I read/heard yours in-between the scheduling and the posting of mine. Coming soon.

Ooooh I cant wait to read/listen to yours!

Polarity and the [seeming] paradox it sheds light on is such a magical thing... and now you've got me contemplating paradox. Today's gonna be fun
