Always Reforming

I return to home

Which I have come to realize

was encompassed in you.

A representation -

of days, years, places, tragedies….

of forgiveness, friendship, love….

So much weight I made you bear

that you never were just you.

What I am learning is, I only selfishly saw a reflection.

Being with an artist creates the most tension between pure elation and deprivation.

Someone so consumed by their craft, by the pursuit of beauty. You ever been jealous of a letterform?

Of the way they tenderly shape each corner, relentless perfection.

You find yourself feeling like just another form to iterate on.

All the while, you are enthralled by such determination, awareness, and light.

Hi tumblr, haven’t posted anything personal for years.

Here’s a pic of me and yet another kitty that made its way into my life. - obviously she’s super psyched about it.
