To reconcile the distance & the time it takes

 
Cross Reference
Diesel sand
driven beneath the foam

Plus & Minus
I can trace the slow
dance within
the shadow palms like
the Mayan alphabet
random & damp
w/blue walls & a questionable
need for whatever
conspicuous sense of
balance bends the pavement
to its own inarticulate
desire

Time
It’s later than you think
but four hours earlier than that
in Samoa
