Keeping Things Whole
In a field
I am the absence
of field.
This is
always the case.
Wherever I am

and always the air moves in
to fill the spaces
where my body’s been.
We all have reasons
for moving.
I move
to keep things whole.

The engine will fail

we’ll hitch it. The sea!
The soles of our shoes will be perfectly worn, justifiably so;
for when we remove them,
there is nothing but (shal)low tide
