Notes About The Poem

Life can be like a jungle.  Tracks appear, but where do they lead?

Tracks

Having their own existence 
Though not really a thing 
But a way cleared of things 
Constituting a means to fall sideways 
Beckoning horizontal gravity 
Proposing purpose, pointless promise 
Lots beguiling by sweet sticky
Olfactory wipings
Subject pushes like a fooled particle 

Discovering networks
From an inside perspective 
Looking like tubes.
From outside, arachnoid;
The infinite trap
Divine vision of spider
At the universe's centre.
What you see, you get.
