Curiosity
Is there something we must hear or see
Which will then satisfy our curiosity?
Is it a thing from which we may not escape?

Keeping you cool
I don't want the harness
I just want the fa...

of a curious heart
Haunting at the edges of the living world
are spirits of the unspoken connectivity in people
dead and alive, the as-yet unborn
caught between planes
waiting for the flashlight beam
of a curious heart
There is an untapped seem ...
