AL I! I! B!

But this realization is a cut-glass jagged edge, fan- tastical in the slow-motioned darting, luminously laughing colors and shapes of itself. but able to rip raw blood veins of agony apart in the quest to cap- ture its beauty, and always becoming a telescoped magnifier for the mind, rather than a sight for sighing satisfaction in itself: it sharpens and focuses view, somehow, not unto itself, but unto the infinity of realizations and questions that exist indestructably magnetic, indubitably unanswerable beyond it. All these, through the willow-gangrened tortures and willow-hugging grins, the clawing-fingered aches and ducks-to-cheek softness they cause, instill deep- ly, throbbingly, pulsating far into the rhythm of the blood deep, the need to communicate, to express the loneliness of the space between a tear and a cheek, the joy of an autumn glowing leaf that forgot to fall and die, the milky-fogged softness of a whisp of cotton sleeping on a whisp of hair, the terror of a god without hands, and hands who simply are not gods, that you now feel. This need to communicate, buried so deeply within the fertile earth of your mind, but continually erupting, becomes a driving passion: especially so when communicating is so stut- tering-eyed difficult, with a lack of age, and voice, and maturity of thought. You know in every breath of your senses, the things your senses feel: yet the expression of this knowledge is only sand-strong, always sand-crumb- ling. You are a wind suffocated by swelling, cement- ing fingers of thunder-drowned words, and thunder- frightened phrases, but demanding the freedom to roam and experience with greater and greater con- stancy. And so the attempt to communicate is con- tinual, a rushing-through-mud thick state of in- volvement consumes your forever-ticking hours, to see if you can possibly break the bonds of those fin- gers, and say what is in you that must be said, to see if others might finally perceive, if you might fully perceive, the ghouls and elves, the soaring-spanned eagles and butterfly-hermits, the snowflake-delicate ideas and snowflake-magnificent ideals, welling, ca- joling, laughing through tears, and crying through laughs, within you. .
