the air feels full of florid messages
from the future
every black pebble I gather whispers
reminders for later
how easily your attention slips away
--a dancer in the crowd
multiplying me with mute mystery
until I exist
for you might say the book is complete
but I have a feeling
I'll still imagine there are places inside
where I can color it
