The first paragraph is a beautiful poem on its own. I blabber about structure so much in your pieces but they are so finely detailed and jointed precisely that you are not aware of the words moving beneath you as you read. We share a fascination with naming. Most of my remaining friends will not indulge me anymore to talk about naming and the act of creation. I tend to go off the deep end by making wildly unbelievable claims like the tree in my front yard did not exist until it was named. People can't think or talk in the abstract anymore and I can't think or talk about anything else. I like your love poem of naming here, names as placeholders- lovely concept. This one begs to be read aloud and even in my hillbilly nasal it sounds good Where's Jeremy Irons when you need him?
