My transom outgrew my bailiwick
and flew away under aegis
that grew to dark cloud
hung over domain,
where you stood
impassive,
examining it.
Between
all our breadth
and compassing,
in such own experience,
bounds and all!
In all of our ambit
and sweep and scope,
this realm between us
has grown to demesne,
which having no limits
cannot ever fall.
But having no limits,
horizons extend beyond
all proportion and circular sense.
So stood at approximate opposite
ends, we can't cross it all -
to meet on a hill
become our domain,
looking up at dark cloud,
hung over and growing
so tall
with rain
