I read this all in one go and I love it! I love it because it's a beautiful prose poem, who just flows. It flows! It flows literally and realistically and emotionally.

This was great. I like the way you wrote it, it felt like a broom being swept and every sweep just gave a little more and a little more until it felt like a trickle of images.

Lovely honey. I'm sure Rilke would approve. Trans poets can take poetry into the future, overcoming the current limits of human thought. We exist outside of boundaries, freeing our very conception of reality from limits to self-expression.
