- Point
Infinity
- I've been
to the place where time
- runs so s
l o w
- and all
- is
- molasses
- but my
thoughts
- outran my
thinking
- there
where the sea touches sky.
-
- I've
drowned in my own bed
- swimming
slowly
- straining
- yet
- sinking
- but my
heart
- over-buoyed
my joy
- there
where the sea touches sky.
-
- I've been
a thin line
- stretched
clear to the horizon.
- My head
met the morning
- while my
toes touched the night.
- Made it
close to forever, once --
- dang near
made me cry;
- and I've
never been sure
- that I
ever came back
- from
there where the sea touches sky.
