Nothing Moves But The Sun



A limited observer
such as I,
gone alone
into a room 
where others' selves
connected to it
once existed.

In all directions
I turn –
around and around
in this place
because I know it
not well – not well
enough at least
to try to interpret it.

The view seems empty until…
coming through so interestingly,
blending with the listless air,
the raw thrill of morning's light –
it is ever lovely,
witnessing the spreading of it.

A current interest issues forth, 
alleging a form of dialogue
punctuated by an impression
creeping into consciousness,
insinuating itself upon me –
I try to excerpt its poem, 
to write determinately its drama,
finding me where I am.
