objects have always emanated a particle presence :
warm to cool
porcelain cup to weave of linen
hands that trace the curve of a wall
wood & weather
the rusted thin wires of a birdcage
yellow-parakeet-memory
counters cracked with age and baking as
heat & time
wraps & welds
fingertips roll across the corners of books
dusty with captain kangaroo morning stillness
tick tock tick tock
the air we breathe
secrets locked ….
hold …
seek
