The View

 

I hardly knew
you then

something in par-
ticular slowed me
down leaves catching

sudden warm breeze
lingers in it s
drift

deliberately
kept my distance
to get a perspective;

for days nothing
about anything
said

what meant more
so
just out of reach

or want
stroke can
write

reach over
wring
your neck
