i scrape for words
like loose change,
feeling inexperienced
but waxing full of love.
it adds up to exasperation.

my fingertips frail
like im drowning,
like skeleton finger satellites
reaching through the crusted void;

an eyeblink later
i push through the sandy surface
i am on the page
i am the whitespace and the margin
keeping order
pushing against you
insurmountable

i am the fence, the tide

you cannot contain
the sea

you cannot describe
its color
One never before shared. Part two to come.

I love the figurative imagery here. "i scrape for words like loose change," and "skeleton finger satellites" are magnificent to me. I do not understand the title, though.
