Simply sat

Simply sat in the

Voids of time these

Great gasps moaning

Overhead, these

Slippering meanings

Sliding through this

Disconnected distance

Down-trodden insistence

On this, this life

This life and

None other

Stretched out

Here and yonder

Stretched out until it

Might snap

Under the load

Of its contradiction.

Simply sat and

Wondered whence

This becomes

And whither.
