“To see how deep the well goes, or if a vein of art leads all the way to the heart of the mountain.”

I like that image of a vein of gold. For me, the through-line is usually hidden and only lights up when I turn around and see where I’ve been.

“My poems start to support one another, saying things not only as individuals, but in concert. They are in conversation with each other, sometimes across decades.”

I love the idea of poems supporting each other. Being in concert. What a beautiful way to imagine repetition.

Also the image of the stars as witness and of the moment of the holding hands existing eternally in starlight is gorgeous.
