An insect on a leaf

Tentative abstract as note & poem
Lawrence Upton

notes
moving – seeing depth
walking – ways of learning, surviving
not walking – work done or started or finished on public transport
inhabiting

reimagining
my ancestors knew landscapes I walk, their purposes not mine
memory? ethnicity? social purpose?
time divided
on outskirts of a huge old city
on edges of Ocean
wilderness, ruin; deserts, engines
moving heaviest structure / power that is close / on edge

(a poem?) deludes
one to others
resonate fragmentary pieces
everything held

form a wall?
diverging

lines from
junctions
any whole
