the ingrates

Gratitude is a gravity well
that shapes all the space 
beyond and between 
and within all our orbits 
of sink and swell.
We proceed in straight line 
towards understanding
as we arc and we curve
round the center of things.

We know which way is up:
it grows as we go. Well,
we couldn't be anymore
grateful for this! To be 

so held down 
and held in 
as we wish. 

As we shoot in straight line 
all straight through and around 
such discerned and describable,
curved and recurving
curvaceous flow. 

Gratitude is

the shortest distance 
between any two 
points we know.
