So I know I'd said I'd only post when something epic happened, and I'm not really sure if the events of today count. We finally went and picked up the fish, they're acclimating nicely. Other than that, I haven't done much today. I did a lot of thinking, which is where the reflection comes in, and a lot of talking, which is where the refraction comes in.
The definition of refraction is "the change in direction of a wave due to a change in its speed". That's what I feel like I'm doing today by speaking, by typing, by emitting verse like a wave, and letting it change other people's directions. Or trying anyway. Maybe more like hoping.
Sorry guys. This is sort of a maudlin post. But I think mostly I'm refracting against myself. Changing my own direction. Letting the waves of my verse slow me down, and make me do a sharp right, towards someone. A new, beautiful and brilliant star in my life, who I can only hope to be allowed to catch and to hold as it falls.
