Simple Reification Question

All,

I'm sure I'm missing something, but I cannot find a simple way to refer to a 
single statement. What I want to do is something like the following:

</rdf/:RDF>
  </rdf/:Description about="http://www.w3.org/Home/Lassila">
    </s/:Creator rdf:statementID="S_001">Ora Lassila<//s/:Creator>
  <//rdf/:Description>
  </rdf/:Description about="#D_001">
    </a/:attributedTo>Ralph Swick<//a/:attributedTo>
  <//rdf/:Description>
 <//rdf/:RDF>

but I cannot find a way to do it. Clearly I could fully expand the 
statement and refer
to it that way, or I could use the bagID construct, but it seems clumsy 
since my application
requires me to refer to a lot of individual statements rather than a 
collection of statements
about a resource.

What's the canonical way to do this?

TIA,
 John Jensen
