The Stream / nick hutchings

Particles in a stream of consciousness
Absorbent conductors infused as I float
As it flows inside me and flows around me
Animated only through the resistance of being
Compelled at birth by the law of attraction
Always…to find another again and again
All through the passage of life it saturates me
Until I resist no longer and dissolve as in death.

Nick Hutchings: Despite my many teachers’ best efforts to prepare me for a job indoors I chose commercial diving. I love to explore and am equally happy doing so in the deep ocean or the intriguing social phycology of my community using aquatic robots for the former and poetry for the latter.
