Against meaning

It is in the spot I’m going to now.
The secret. The real secret is
I’m already there, you are too.
So’s the lightning and wind
it’s stapled to, like a slip
from the nurse’s office letting you
out early. All’s already there
and we’ve already been
wasn’t it nice? But now
it’s time to be getting back.
Where? To the spot
we’re heading to, that thin gray crack
of light slowly spreading.
Against meaning, lunatic, real.

[Joanne Kyger / Anselm Hollo]
