I become better and better at sitting
the more I realise I cannot settle
even for a moment
when I realise just how much
I cannot settle
even for a moment
how all my life is wound and weaved through all my time that
I cannot settle
even for a moment and
what a relief
all this building all this plotting
all these clever ripostes
I can detach from them all
just for a moment
