unpacking.
undoing.
unmoving.
i spent the day inside the same four walls.
i spent the day in stillness carefully laying
memorized mementos in their proper place.
my home travels with me.
no matter where i am there is a hummingbird and
there are red beads strung on the wall.
i feel old in this place. i feel treasured.
settled, settling in,
i am tired of the past.
i look up to my map,
the line drawn across it.
this is where i came from.
this is where i went.
i am tired of the past.
for now, i am here,
it is of no concern where i was.
the eastwardly mountains
and westwardly sea enclose me.
i stand still.
i do not desire to be anywhere else.
