Optimist

I, you (we) cast lives

Into gaps of printed words

We brush flows over aging pigment

Narrative creatures that we are

Movement, movement

We need motion, arcing,

Action to freedom

I want to tell us (you)

A story in perspective, a new story

In perspective

(How clear you have been)

Cleared and estranged

There are traces and notes,

Compelling notes

And many, many echoes
