Scraps of paper crumpled in pockets, a photograph tucked in a book, notes on cocktail napkins, a secret in the bottom of a drawer, a story by the fire, love letters unsent...
A Shrine to Forgotten Things.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I love the handful of the earth you are.
Because of its meadows, vast as a planet,
I have no other star. You are my replica
of the multiplying universe.Your wide eyes are the only light I know
from extinguished constellations;
your skin throbs like the streak
of a meteor through rain.Your hips were that much of the moon for me;
your deep mouth and its delights, that much sun;
your heart, fiery with its long red rays,was that much ardent light, like honey in the shade.
So I pass across your burning form, kissing
you—compact and planetary, my dove, my globe.
–Pablo Neruda, “One Hundred Love Sonnets: Morning, XVI”
