le ciel, le 23 juillet
one week ago now to the hour i touched the ground again at "home"
it feels like forever has gone by since then, and
i find myself anywhere but at rest.
every time i go away, i come back expecting a sense of relief
that i have finally dropped anchor in my hometown.
but every time i come back feeling a little wilder,
a little stranger, a little less at ease.
i don't know where i belong.
---------------
i know where i don't belong.
but i'm not just going to flee everything.
i want a destination.
or, if not a destination, a direction.
so far all arrows, made visible in the arrangement of objects in the wind,
point west.
---------------
come in my direction
see what there is to see
then --- stay ---
