Analysis of The Crazy Shape Of Love
Spill ink and twist me
into the crazy shape of love
as I chase the day's madness.
Gather up the quiet folds
which slip in the unique spirit;
high wired individuality.
Smile out scattered thoughts
that break cold knuckled frowns
with flaps of feathered motion.
Here I will sit and wrap up
the trails of language
and create origami shapes.
