I ... entered the poem of life, whose purpose is ... simply to witness the beauties of the world, to discover the many forms that love can take. (Barabara Blackman in 'Glass After Glass')

Secret Message

Let this poem, going
on down the page,
veering not, show
everything that matters.

If it had a
spine,

a straight edge, all
links would support
lucid or veiled explanations.

Is not such a
secret message found

at the beginnings of
linear explorations, and (partly) one
long sideways excursion?
