You are living the life you wanted as if you’d known what that was but of course you didn’t so you’d groped toward it feeling for what you couldn’t imagine, what your hands couldn’t tell you, for what that shape could be.
This Sunday the rain turns cold again and steady but the window is slightly open and there is the vaguest sense of bird song somewhere in the gaps between the buildings because it’s spring the calendar says and the room where you are reading is empty yet full of what loves you and this is the day that you were born

“In a book I wrote called How To Write I made a discovery which I considered fundamental, that sentences are not emotional and that paragraphs are. I found out about language that paragraphs are emotional and sentences are not and I found out something else about it. I found out that this difference was not a contradiction but a combination and that this combination causes one to think endlessly about sentences and paragraphs because the emotional paragraphs are made up of unemotional sentences.”
