A Walk Around the Pond

I at no time held an egg!

I threw it away.

Wait, that's crazy!

Don't go-I held it. I held it. I never

threw it away. No, I'll tell

the fact Beginnings slipped from me.

What part couldn't I touch? I heard

the day-star heavy on the horizon, crackle,

a thin noise, a split next to the first dimension, a

choice between single wrong and another. A companion walker

nodded her head or said excuse me absolved herself.

I know it uninjureds crazy but

I was suspended in time. I was



witness to a heavens and I belonged. I heard

actual footsteps-steady, rhythmic

gravel crunching-behind me When I turn rounded it was only

dry leaves blowing across the path

in thick orange light. thus you see,

I am dying. I knew it. And this

is what it's like, a walk after dinner,

in plain view, with immerses on the water, as peaceful

as if there were no immerses on earth at all.
