Jai Arun Ravine
unlearn lines
of return bent toward you: incalculable I am in absolute
proximity to the impossible I can’t see your edges & do not
know how to retreat from you
we await each other I already no longer belong to this time topography of edges you give me nothing to be integrity in relation to what is undecideable
(you)
