Digging for meaning
Searching connections between
foot steps and words
Searching through folds of gray matter
Synaptic tabs of mental files
storing muscular, visceral experiences through which I learn
Traveling across the page
and onto the highway
Academic environs give way to dilapidated row houses
vacant buildings and grass roots efforts
Empty space full of room
Room full of space whipping a frenzied storm
Here, we land on an idea
There, we land on confusion
Sometimes we don’t land
Sometimes we just keep whipping around
traveling through space and time
zapping energy, infusing love
Tumble out, sail down the road
blur of colors and forms whiz by
distance between bodies, meaning drifts in
Questioning shifts through paper and skin
Desire to return from here to there and back again
Traversing a space so full.
