Quotes by Geffrey Davis (?)

“Alone, I rifle streamers through pockets
deep enough to hold fish large

as memory. With others, I will wade
waist-deep all day, for the small

paradise of watching someone
run their fingers along the belly

of what was once impossible
to touch. And release everything back.”
― Geffrey Davis, Revising the Storm
