What men build, in the name of security, is built of straw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does the grain of sand know it is a grain of sand?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My dog Ben — a mouth like a tabernacle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can have the other words – chance, luck, coincidence, serendipity. I’ll take grace. I don’t know what it is exactly, but I’ll take it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Death listens to the hum and strike of my words. His laughter spills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am a performing artist; I perform admiration. Come with me, I want my poems to say. And do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
