Wrestling, ideas grinding, contemplating what comes next from here, to where I’m headed, trip morphs forth and back from voyage to voyeur, from journey to journeyman, from mindset to sunset – here to there – no more accurate description of distance than it explains leaps from state of mind to state of mind, stage of life to stage of life, no less, this pivoting basketballer searching for open teammates, ready for weightless frog-leaps to conclusion as twice before, nearly twice again, now hopefully only one more time, but how many more attempts will it take – to strike balance in someone who shares my bent and my bentness who too bores from equilibrium, searching out volatility, who unfolds chaos in search of reasons, calm delicious reasonableness, till bored again – what comes next, with who, when, where – and, why not?
