If I were to try and explain my experience, I would flip it all upside down and have it melt down the page. Think of the last time you read a book, feel the words evaporate slowly towards the bottom of the page—have them sink—fall off the page and into your lap, they’ll wander off, maybe travel somewhere distant. I realize this isn’t what you came here for, some poetic lecture on the nature of who I am, but here you are. Now, I’ll answer your search query: my name is Claire, I write sometimes and design things.

About Me

If I were to try and explain my experience, I would flip it

all upside down and have it melt down the page.

Think of the last time

you read a book,

feel the words evaporate slowly towards the bottom of the page

—have them sink—

fall off the page

and

into your lap,

they’ll wander

off,

maybe travel somewhere distant.

I realize

this isn’t what you came here for,

some poetic lecture

on the nature of

who I am

but here you are.
