There is a line
that bends itself
around to meet
back where it starteddo you go forward
and back around
have you made progress
if your end is foundbeneath the point
where you began
like a smudged mark
beneath your handaround until
back at the place
you're standing still
the point to beginthe rain blurs into sun
what's an end
or sun fades behind clouds
again, and againlook how far you've come
the past behind you
and going on before
face forward.
