The handwritten footnotes
on either of my palms reads:
'our mouths are exits;
our ears are entrances.'
Dog-mark the pages
and highlight the words;
this lesson is rigged
and I have yet to learn
the grading curve
on a heart.
When we speak together
we listen separate
for where each other
is on the learning curve
and lean with the gradation
when we're inclined
to let ourselves
not know better.
Let's connect the dots
and plot the angle between us
before the curve gets too steep
and I find myself stuck
where x and y meet.

A collaboration with the wonderful ^NicSwaner!
This has been in the works for.... I don't even remember how long. But I like it!
Nic came up with the wonderful title, which is a play on the Bell Curve (see what we did there?). No, really--the Bell Curve is "a symmetrical bell-shaped curve that represents the distribution of values, frequencies, or probabilities of a set of data.
Bellwether, on the other hand, means an indication of a trend.
Also, learning curve and grading curve...but I think those are pretty self-explanatory, yes?
GOOOOOO show his gallery some lovin', yes?! You won't regret it!
