“Beyond our ideas of right-doing and wrong-doing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there.

the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase ‘each other’
doesn’t make sense any more.”

It may be that the ocean one,
the one we desire so to move into and become,
desires us out here on land a little longer,
going our sundry ways to the shore.
