Description I don't think I want to be human.  I think I would rather be a book, and also the writer of that book, and words wouldn't stand between myself and others because I am words, and I am others and I am my own God.  I might be a forest fire, because I think we need one, and they are impartial to loss and individual travesties.  They are unbiased renewal.  But I am a tree, and I suppose that's just as well, because I would rather be a book.  If human nature is human nurture, then I might just practice; I might just stare at the white of a computer screen until I know.  I think I might be a photograph.  I could stand being a photo of something private, to live in like a house because as was is better than as is, because as is is fleeting, and as was is stagnant.  It is hard to live in a river.  Pretty stones are smoothed down to nothing, and a photo wears out with the moment and the person living in it gets washed away.  I'd like to dream and dream until I can't tell where the carpenter's hand slipped, because once you see it you see it, and some dreams stick and some dreams don't.  I would like to be History.  I would like to be History.  I would like to be History.  I would like to be History, or a lack thereof.  Not an ocean but a mosquito pond.  Bread to oil and vinegar; I would like to be a chicken with stones in its gizzard.   I would like to be something perfect.
