that
eternity is in us 
lacks
name or personality
it
is a faceless thing, forgetting 
there's
no having been before 
the rain comes, goes 
in
the rain-between, kookaburra
whose
to call?
the
bones revealed 
mean just one thing 
solidity and gumleaf ground 
the ages see in that soil as written 
all this ceasing to be 
no more mysterious 
than coming along
and
as for thanks
bring palms towards 
the raw applause 
the mind's-a-blank 
is going there 
inward or out 
the vanishing?
is there one to say?
life, the long question
not a series 
because forgetting last asked
watching rain fall 
after the dry 
among my wonders 
this most 
knowing that no one is watching 
how often I dance with myself 
to this tune
