I wanted to make, create and collect things.
Frame them, place them carefully on display and store them in my pocket.
Bamboo boxes, dirtied feathers, dripping paintings.
When I found you my eyes squinted and the shadows from the sun played upon the angular creases.
I could see you, but only slightly. Everything was too bright. White.
I knew I could never keep you.
I hold glimpses of you in the obsidian stone resting on my palm
or your breath in the bristles of a brush.
