Infinitives

to stand on a threshold

to act before & now & after

to suspend time

as if to be galactic, as if to be universal

to turtle up through green water

to lizard along a lichened trunk

to spider a thread out to a distant limb

to raven a power line

to raccoon a compost heap

to sample dirt

to touch, to pick up, to drop a handful of pebbles

to trace a meadow, a forest, a ledge

to angle toward sunshine

toward rain, toward dark, toward starlight

to find instead of self 

a commons
