Voltage
Between two points a difference waits,
patient as copper in the earth,
until the circuit completes itself
and something nameless surges forth.

I have felt this — the gap before
the switch is thrown, the held breath
of potential, pressure without motion,
power that is not yet power.

Then: contact. And the dark wire
becomes a thing alive with purpose,
humming its one note
all the way to the end of the line.
Santa Cruz, November
The fog comes in from the Pacific
like a slow algorithm, covering
each variable in gray.
The redwoods do not mind.

I drove the coast road thinking
about arc flash — the invisible
violence of too much touching,
the flash that only lasts a moment
but leaves its mark forever.
Reno, 2016
We built the thing in a garage.
I soldered it myself — component
by component, a small cathedral
of logic and hope.

The PCB was a map of everything
we believed: that detection could
come early, that small machines
could save lives.
