KEEPING THINGS

Whole
Mark Strand

In a field / I am the absence /
of field.
This is / always the case.
Wherever I am /
I am what is missing.
When I walk / I part the air /
and always / the air moves in /
to fill the spaces /
where my body’s been.
We all have reasons /
for moving.
I move / to keep things whole.
