Forming & dissolving

in equal measure
with equal intention
& somewhere
within hearing
the seesaw
stilled
as each
month
comes
to closing
the next opening
the same true
with a meal
with the next
scattered
gestures
penning
air

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.
