Place became “enough” and “too much”
together, leaving became our future.
We had not hoped to be describing
such endless country, nor did we intend
unconscious directions in such weathers.
So we tried saying “here!” and “stop,”
and did stop, and stayed, and would settle
if the miles we could think of only
were the miles that returned us to here,
and if they were not miles to be covered.
