RE: Brief interview conducted through the medium of an Australian Oxford Pocket Dictionary Fifth Edition

By Jax Soon-Legaspi

Excerpt from pages 909 - 942 of the Australian Oxford Pocket Dictionary Fifth Edition / What is the best memory you have of a lover?

– respond — answering to your singer’s voice

reminisce in the quiet murmur of the train

reflexive we create ourselves

reflex i reach for your hand like second nature

reflects and smile when yours reaches back

revolution the aeons of linguistic shift speed on in our synapses

reverse like tectonic plates of a planet turning backward, destination pangaea

repeat this in everything, this is everything, this in all things, running endlessly back to you

return through all things, coming back to you.
