like quiet is a place

July 10, 2006

was it a place?
maybe it was a place –
like quiet is a place
to stop amid the noise
and find yourself there.

was it a process?
maybe it was a process –
like birth is a process
to come into something
you have – and have not – been in before.

was it a game?
maybe it was a game –
like a tree is a game
to hide up among the leaves
knowing autumn will soon arrive.

circa 1985
