From this seated place, it is possible to
reduce the distance a little. To find that far away things are actually
close. Places, people, events involving places and people.
So to, events in places significant for the absence of people. Just complete
absence.
People not being there. It's quite a nice thought really,
and it's quite a nice thing. My absence in all places other than the places
I am.
That's how it is really, exactly like that.
As I move forward (in)to, I remove my absence from that
place. And create my absence in that previous place. I (i) am intending
to remove my absence from that intended place.
That's what I'm doing... sitting. Sitting here not quite flashing not quite blinking,
neither on the periphery nor the centre... wandering in mental steps...
glacier country, deep gorge being.
A regular flash and alternating blink once every four days doesn't match
my pulse.
If you blink your eyes you might miss the flash and have
to wait for the next one.
