questions

who am i
whom's
context is a skin I'm in 
skin
I'm in
this excess
excess
con den
sation
a drip drop
a shower a storm
perception portioned and
re-portioned
of charity
of giving
of 
this tapestry of tongues
sentient
are words sentient
when we speak them?
if it's beyond my own interest
can I feel it
can I feel
what I omit
my limits connect 
and contribute
am I responsible for the rain
do I
grow momentary roots a kind of
cultural 
relativism
help me look 
look up from this desk
its stain
am 
I am morally responsible 
for more than I can see
this 
is not a contract
I have inherited 
advantages disadvantages
omens
asymmetry
our unequal 
bodies
dear affiliate
the death of me
it's accent surrenders fallibility
I am allowed pleasure
I am allowed
to be
intensely alive
a verb is an abstract
theorist
a persona
a puppet paradox
time is loss
is a gift
why wish 
for the whole thing?
time is real
i think the rain 
ached down the window
soft pedal

Your use of words here is amazing. I love it.

This is like being lightly slapped, massaged, then tattoed with words--really excellent stuff that would be impossible to read without having major brain function happening..loved it all, but "I have inherited...omens..." is a line I wish I'd written.

Time is a gift ... why wish ...
I also like con dense sation. I think that was it. By the time I get backstage at the comments I sometimes forget what I wanted to say! http://looseleafnotes.com
