Where do you go at night?
Do you wonder where I go? Whether I am really here?
Yesterday I rode the train but wasn't really there at all.
Years before I took a boat but all I know is that I did not drown.
Where do we go, if we go anywhere at all?
I know where I want to go, where I have been.
Why can I not tell you where I am now?
I roll into you. You roll away
into another
space between us.
