On having a shape but finding it too

By Charlie Black

I think it has to do with air

color has pedagogies
but shape is open

open

open

open your mind to EXPLOSION
open your mind to space and molecule and philote
open to expansion
to tessellation
to fractals
to spaces

filled and unfilled

Shape is space

or a reaction to space or the relation of space

to space

I am drawn to open spacein
6th grade I could not resist an open field

still can’t

want to spin and fall and roll
scrape elbows and knees

bloody me up

grass in mouth and shirt

masochistic itch

dirt mingle sweat

create HEAT create ENERGY
energy begets energy

warm aura expounding
if I get hot enough could I glow

space becoming light

shape becoming
