Notes About The Poem

loose ends

Listen to poem:

To the Ends of the Earth

Loose ends of 'escape-path' threads intertwine
into a monkey fist knot,
gathered up by Earth's sphere.

For a circle has neither start nor end.
All paths taken to dead ends
go on to somewhere else.

At every 'End-of-the-Earth' lies a sign,
beside a turning circle -
No Standing Here, Ever!
