Breathing Together

Kim is back and found for me what I could not find for myself. That was probably a good thing, since it's easier to learn from lack than largess. Now that I can realize my initial intention, though, I will. I wouldn't call this one "representative" but it fits the way I'm feeling:
The Conspiracy

You send me your poems,
I'll send you mine.

Things tend to awaken
even through random communication.

Let us suddenly
proclaim spring. And jeer

at the others,
all the others.

I will send a picture too
if you will send me one of you.
-- Robert Creeley
It fits the whole LJ format too, come to think of it. R.I.P: "Restless in poetry."
