Path

Everywhere there is a
cushion
a spacing invitation
an arm’s breadth exit ramp
caution thrown wide to
race
Anywhere there is an angle
measuring a sheet of sky
Somewhere a limit,
elsewhere
fine strokes
denote a wind of
suspension
of trespassing intention
Thorns will climb stems
thorns will throne leaves
acre over acre of elegy
Elsewhere there is a
fastening
a note pinned to your coat
another cyclone centering
suitable for wandering
