I WAS NOT EVEN BORN WHEN YOU BECAME AN EXPERTby Nick Sturm & Wendy Xu I am awake next to the lake and the lake is asleep and has been sleeping since the universe cracked open and you invented canoes. We are quiet together when the law is coming after us. It is so easy to break the law when the law does not even know it is not going to last forever. What is going to last forever is the way you steer our canoe into the tall reeds like a thick beam of light. In here the law is so unbelievable! The air touches us everywhere! I say that it is a good thing to be awake and young and not some translucent gathering of very small particles. But we are all made of very small particles, which is what you tell me as you breathe without thinking like you always do. |
