ACCOUNT OF MY DAYS
Sequence: 3
TRILLION
bewilderment in the trillions
one flies off on its own
searching searching
is it looking for another of its kind?
does it obey its thirst?
the trillion has forgotten
it might even be fear
that made it set off
but if so it cannot tell
for fear with all its other impulses
has merged into
the drive straining forward
trillion
how I urge you on!
keep going! your flight
is my flight too
your fear my fear
your thirst my thirst
only your loneliness
cannot be mine too
for if loneliness were shared
one would not be alone
