there is time to be leaving fast and fail safe

nobody has really gone there the way that you know i could

i have done it and felt addicted, not to its freedom and not to its safety,

not at all do i know what to feel in that place. i'm finding my nines

they are swimming and guiltless, dreamless, sleepless wrinkles of faith

where we are sleeping i find none, where i am alone i am blind in my comings and goings

weight

and speed and time,

loving me with the mouth of God.
