Kit Kelen #229 - need to know basis


229
need to know basis


need to imagine
a way before us


and where we've been
never taken as read
but eyes wide do it
that's how we were there!
and that's how we get to be here


we're the wonder


what's next to say
to do, and who to tell
and who to be


need to imagine
this face of mine


and in the mirror
who do you see?
were you ever
here before?


with each footfall
there's a way
imagine where
the road must go
each leads on to others


it is a kind of vanishing
connects us with the gone


that's a thing you have to see
with eye the mind supplies


need to imagine
which word is next


the wondering
is all our work
the world in the bones
beyond


elsewhere is in it
all ways


you're there
you other one!
you!


imagine that!
and every thing else
other than is
otherwise
how are things
known at all?


and if not known
how can they be?
go there and you
won't come back
but that must be
true anyway


I liken my dissimilars
and will you won't you liken yours?


so many things
are need to know
so little time to show


need to imagine
how the day is made
of all these old collisions
things grown round
gone round till now


is there beyond
this dream of ours?


imagine you're leaving
of this world
but there's nowhere to go


best settle!


just imagine it!
best settle in for the ride
