391

goats can climb anywhere

I suppose

you feel sorry for the one

with still so little distance to go

you think I must wait

or run with the clock

useless to run counter

or off into another world

I think that's what you think

I address this to a younger self

of whom now I ask

do you cast your lot in with the road

to go with whoever may pass?

not enough light to see in here now

you fiddle with the thing

pick at it

no avoiding that

you're round the edge of

where it lifts

I have to pity your ignorance

even as of yesterday

and going forward

follow the lines on my face

I can't see them myself

but I know

that they lead

to the vanishing place

my fantasy's to find you there
