or more
back there
sitting down blind-
eyed and tallish
I actually felt
at least
half like a tree—
mostly
in so far as—I had absolutely
no hands
and hence
couldn't even pretend
to apprehend
the world
around me like that.
What a relief!
not to
reach to be
part of it—
to be
in my dumb place
and to know it
as such—I mean, er
no
not
at all like that—but
yes, I guess
you really
kind of
had to be there—
