Beginnings by EricTodd

with William Cordray

Lyrics

Dithering in salad plastic circles
re-exacting relationships
counted and recounted
measured in cups
of different volumes

eating, placing, taking, taping, making, forgetting, raising, spacing, making sweating, wearing, taping, making, waking, shaking, beginning, forgetting, sweating, sleeping, wearing

I'm only beginning to understand
how I'm a part of you.

Paper cups
of different sizes
discarded and reprinted
adjusted and renamed
a litany of the same change
