how i would appear before the world that lifelong concern with mirrors
mirrors now broken mostly shimmers on the surface of waters returning to the sea
i am disappearing having learned nothing
taking that world with me the world i failed to indwell could not understand neither the ecstasy nor the terror
i tried though in all fairness i tried
beyond success or defeat it is not something to be reached
still the question remains what was it or what is it
it is relentless
what are we time's questioning
yet also on offer a prodigious opening the passingness that we are here or there or nowhere itself the question of time
bare bare but not barren the pilgrim’s heart
