When was the first time? / are you even born yet / tumbling through as an accident / lungs that fold onto themselves / church that folds its hands behind their backs / or / is it sound emanating from everywhere / your dumb curiosity / heightened / a lack of understanding of the material /
Maybe you learn about objects hurtling through space / when the can hits the back of your head / or / you learn how to lay stone / start piecing things together / like value / or / how time can stand still if you focus / /or / learning to read intention in a crowded room / so that your first descent is an aimless accident / you learn to push, pull, & stumble / or /is it brief preparation for intention / or / is it the freedom to destroy activity? / or / is it collective memory dragging its hair behind our backs?
