Listen to poem:
About Face
About Face
David J Walker
It is about face
About time and place
And direction
And unoccupied space
In East or West that
We face
And the unknowing of
which is forward or
backward or north
or south
the illusion of which is
up and which is down
bound by the gravity of
anticipation in
each new moon and season
Named for the gods lost
To antiquity
