Forming


or perhaps dissolving.  Perspective is all.  But perhaps we can agree on the beauty of the dramatic even when it comes to a pinch of red pepper flake or when we decide whether to add or remove a preposition to a line of poetry.  Forming and dissolving:  principles of editing.  Principles of cooking.

  1. CT Compositions 2

    She took me to the ocean and I played in the sand
    She bought me chocolate ice cream cones
    And spread us out on the old blanket
    I kept looking for someone out there in the waves
    I kept seeing my future out there somewhere

    And wandering in a blur of wandering
    Without my compass
    Without my pretty maps
    I landed in a place I though I knew

    Going home in many boats
    riding on the luck of the draw
    and down the dusty roads with many others
    I got somewhere I was supposed to go

    Fortunately
    Fortunately
    Fortunately
