a pushcart prize


marisa talks creativity & awakening 

on untangle


I believe in grace. I believe in the blackmarket 

currency of the unknown: 

fresh pennies in deepsea caves and the 

dream that loiters, oblique.


I believe in the weave and heft

 of the small things we mostly neglect

 to see: dandelion and anemone and relentless 

ant. I believe in the mercy of solitude and the 


kindness of trees. I believe in dancing 

with its wide faith, its surrender to the 

body’s malted hungers. I believe we are all 

waiting out the race, even as our legs 


collapse beneath us our eyes scour the 

heavens for evidence of what 

we know and have known and 

will again forget. I believe in grace.
