smoke







looking back
at the poems
i've written

it struck me

how much life
i appear
to have lived

how much love
i seem
to have known

how much distance
one can travel
without
having to move

    This is wonderful; that is what poetry is, too: it should carry you in a collection of moments over any distance. Loved the use of appear/seem also, there's almost an element of surprise bordering on this conviction.

    Really enjoyed this

    So stunning. Beautiful. And as always with an air... of... distracted interest... as though this the sudden surge of your experience has only just come at you, and even still, it does not matter, because it simply is what it is. I love it. As always.
