Journeys

"Elsewhere is a negative mirror. The traveler recognizes the little that is his. Discovering the much he does not have and will never have." 


"Journeys to relieve your past?"




"Journeys to recover your future?"

-Italo Calvino




Journeying turned corners to forget to remember. Be present said everyone everywhere. Yet I ask where are they?  And where are you?


If you dig deep enough in a hole will you still reach china, my sandbox held this secret tight and refused to answer.


Trying to lose time in one of these alleyways, it keeps up just fine.


To be alone

          exterior 




taking the role of "calm"


"would you like me to be anxious for a while?"




a plot

a crescendo 

a catalyst


journey 


is never

                                   Full(y)


recognized


till it is over. 





Travel Necessities: A mirror. So we can always look back without turning around. 




the beginning is alway images


{image} 


idea of an image


                           evaporate

(the) real covers the city as fog 

experience into image

image into mirages 




The streets crack open

Swallowing men

To orgasm them back out

With vision cleared


taking the step




into never 




standing 


ever simple




still 




life
