downcast

perspective, proportion are easy to keep
introducing to situations
that don't need them.

Keep stepping back, considering all
- you will lose your chance
to lose yourself
in anything worth the fall,
with your eyes on the ground
as you watch your step.

off the top of your head,
don't you ever get?

A sense of things
coming together, but only
if both have enough of a sense
of abandon

A sense of wide skies
through which two specks
plummet
in different directions,
at random
- meeting -
and they are the only thing
in this whole wide world
of evening

one of them easily
could have been you,
as the other streaks off
downcast

into deepening blue
