Right Angles to Reality


Rippled dunes like a sandy finger print

the drifts along the ripples as though something drew the horizon lines

but nothing did

the wind blew perpendicular to that

it is our lot in life to insist not only order

but on following that order until the bitter end

some empty horizon on an endless beach

when all along, the forces that shaped our lives where neither

before us nor behind us

but unseen and pushing us from the sidelines.



grains of sand lift off and gain altitude but for a little while

before landing and facing the wind and the pressure at their backs again
