permission

I give myself permission to want

in the full shape of wanting,

to let hunger arrive as its own structure,

moving with a pace that forms itself as it goes,

brushing past Feldman’s long horizons,

catching a brief edge of Stravinsky’s angles

before finding its own timing.

Sagittarius

An astrological acknowledgement, on the nuances of how to love properly... I pictured a sort of "connecting of cosmic dots," as it were, or perhaps a pulling of constellations... What's the one with the bow and arrow? Another extension of Orion? Bleh.

I like that you went cosmic

I like that you went cosmic with it! There’s something in the poem’s motion that invites that kind of constellation‑mapping. For me, though, the piece was working more in the realm of tempo rather than trajectory. But I appreciate the Sagittarius drift which is interesting to see how the poem’s internal movement reads from the outside. Much enjoyed engagement Smile
