SLEEPING WITH ONE EYE OPEN: Mark Strand, Keeping things whole

STRAND.1.1KEEPING THINGS WHOLE

“In a field
I am the absence
of field.
This is
always the case.
Wherever I am
I am what is missing.

When I walk
I part the air
and always
the air moves in
to fill the spaces
where my body’s been.

We all have reasons
for moving.
The move
to keep things whole. “
