i stand still for a moment
and give shape to the unresolved

to share a quiet glimpse 
of the questions
the thoughts
the experiments 
that energize me 

thank you
to all who moved before me
to all who move with me
and to all who move beyond me
​
through the tragedy, healing,  joy, and peace
from you i learn and gain strength
​
​may our work do justice to all that we are
​may our love carry us where we want to be
