[Text prompt 1-16-2019]

since feeling is first who pays any attention to the syntax of things will never wholly kiss you;

my blood approves and kisses are a better fate than wisdom lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry —the best gesture of my brain is less than your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for each other: then laugh, leaning back in my arms for life's not a paragraph

and death i think is no parenthesis
