Rewind

it’s not where it’s how

i would hastily put some of it anywhere somewhere

walk away abandoning       to

commemorate the nimbleness

 

is such scooping of bits possible or without consequence

even metaphorically

description of process does not equate to a knowing

maybe i’m getting it wrong

 

what if Anne Carson is referring to a shift in weight

a break from the rewind

a temporary footfall to put the bags on to get the feeling back in your arms

a deep lungful and pick up       again

 

perhaps it’s where after all

dropping on arrival

parasitic travellers awaiting their destination

are they there yet
