Do We Need Holes?
You need presence of mind
to mind the present
or prescience of mind
to mime the present
holes define the net.
Is space the same as holes
without a net?
Six feet of space between
entities
between you and me
holes within each one: mouth nostrils eyes
who knew speaking one-to-one
spreads more than
ideas
names precede verbs
I think we're alone now
if you sit on one edge
of the bench I on the other
with only our names no-speech
looking at each other
we might survive
