  2. cool challenge, stace. i’ve been writing/thinking a lot about transitions. i’m not getting to the heart of what I really want to say & have thought this week i may reach it through poetry. (hence, a lot of my work is going to be along the ideas of transition.)

    this structure will be fun to work with. maybe i’ll try a poem for two voices . . . although i’ve not looked at your links yet.

    hope you’re having a happy sunday.
