I can’t leave
where I never have been.
and I am everywhere else
intent on closing in.
space, what a concept.
get small,
to chase after large,
to be only, some where.
then know it
by what surrounds.
have travel
as time consumption.
get focused on particulars
as evidence
for being there.
trust vision
as if in need.
feel gravity
as if earthbound.
have a sense of ‘I’
like that is relevant
as in, I’m talking to myself,
as if language authors
speech pronounces
and hearing verifies.
self-consciousness is the menu.
chew properly.
swallow whole.
self is buffet
as a long line,
ever serving.
thought is soup of the day.
slurp if you can.
spill if you must.
cause tides.
ride earth rises.
laugh the death out.
mid-brain gets it.
spine tingles
until oneness overwhelms . . .
