Starting Points
my hands loiter slowly, as children take
sensation in unhurried wonderment,
heralding the realization that almost
anything can be absorbed by robust
yet casual chance meetings.

you caress the river beneath
the designated portion, one for one.

into perceptual illusion?
does love begin at the fingertip?
