________________________________
The Body's Mercator
How far to your life?
As far as the heart’s perimeter.
How long to get there?
As long as it takes.
How hard the climb?
As steep as it gets.
Which way will you go?
Along the river’s folds,
its soft gray hem,
What will you remember?
Days skipped
like stones in canted light.
What is it you are leaving?
Milk, on the back porch,
in a bottle, skin of cream on top.
Warped wooden slats,
the air napped with heat.
A loopy chain of roots.
Long-legged spider
pillowed in the roses.
Will you tell everything?
I’ll open,
the way ants unfold
the sheer white skirts of peonies.
