across the distance
of countless shores, feelings get
clogged up, polluted
by proximate priorities –
we wait to be pulled closer

for them, a
kaukokaipuu
of sorts

two-and-a-
half feelings away
from being
unstuck has
become a lengthy
visitor. we sit

away from being
unstuck is as sound
a visitor as any
