something you reach.
It is the steady
condition
of being here
without leaving.
A few poems to keep
A short printable from this volume, formatted for screen. No account, no email, nothing to fill in — the book said so, and the book was right.
The complete printable of all forty is being set, and it will replace this one here.
The complete printable, when it is ready.
Leave your email and the full set comes to you the day it is done — along with this volume’s reading, when that is done too. No noise in between.
The free reading
Seven short poems for a loud night, read aloud in the Library voice. Nothing to set up, no account to make.
The audio reading of this book
This volume has not been recorded yet. We would rather say so than let you look for something that is not there.
Stillness Is the Ritual, the Anchor Edition, is recorded and out now — one hundred poems gathered from across the Library, about an hour and a half, narrated by a digital voice.
The journal and the cards
Neither is finished. When they are, a short set from this volume will be here — free, with nothing to fill in — and the full editions will be available separately.
Where to go next
The whole shelf, grouped by what it holds. Read in any order. There is no level to reach.
