Where Shall I Wander: New Poems

Where Shall I Wander: New Poems

<p>You meant more than life to me. I lived<br />through you not knowing, not knowing I<br />was living.<br />I learned that you called for me. I came to<br /> where you were living, up a stair. There<br /> was no one there.<br />No one to appreciate me. The legality of it<br />upset a chair. Many times to celebrate<br />we were called together and where<br />we had been there was nothing there,<br />nothing that is anywhere. We passed <br />obliquely,<br />leaving no stare. When the sun was done <br />muttering,<br />in an optimistic way, it was time to leave <br />that there.<br /><br />-- from "The New Higher"
