Experimenting with Length

• Artist: in a pinto forever
• Description: When I wrote this, I was on a plane, immersed in some strong emotion...
  ...It was a pang, complex and bittersweet. On my way to the airport, caught in heavy traffic, my eyes caught a little message engraved into a slab of natural red stone. I could just make out the message, probably from long ago...It hurts to think about it. They were happy once, I suppose. Where are they, now? Are they alive, still? How fleeting was their love? What sort of life do they lead?

The Riverbank

Your hand in mine,
we walk the channels.
Come evening, the shadows shall revel around us-
-silhouettes of the pages before.
When I close the book, will you follow my lead?
