poetry
_
the moment before the sting impounds
the moment you lose the fresh adrenaline, and realize it
the thought-woven moments when your grip
has no handle. and your mind hopelessly watches the sub unsink
why is this an overcoming tragedy,
more so than the result which follows, like you knew it would
His invisible brush of identifiable enigma.
you have seen this before, so you recognize
though you don't know what it is

If I could have coffee with anyone on the planet...
Stefan Sagmeister and I would be taking Starbuckses everywhere by storm.
His last exhibit kills me.
Somewhere in the cross of simplicity (one of the most drawing characteristics in people to me lately) and passion, I'm completely absorbed. The idea of combining simplicity and passion seems paradoxical. It's hard to wrap your head around the idea of one not skewing the other. It's sort of like passion and reason in that respect. Imagine how many less headaches there would be if no one had conflicting thoughts of those two. And noww I'm rocking another boat entirely.
