“When I walk
I part the air
and always
the air moves in
to fill the spaces
where my body's been.”
"Keeping Things Whole" (1969)
Source: Selected Poems
Context: p>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.</p

“Without moving anything / I want to see / the way this autumn / makes the birds move.”

“The less democratic a country is, the move intense its foreign violence.”
