i walk slowly, like one who comes from so far away he doesn't expect to arrive.

Jorge Luis BorgesWhy do you seem so annoyed at what I'm saying?"

Boast of Quietness
Writings of light assault the darkness, more prodigious than meteors.
The tall unknowable city takes over the countryside.
Sure of my life and death, I observe the ambitious and would like to
understand them.
Their day is greedy as a lariat in the air.
