a deep question, least it seems so from down here looking up at it above,
as thot seems non-returnable to nature because it never left nature and so
there seems to be nothing for it to return to, a line rather than a circle,
and if it progressess toward itself at all, toward its natura born self, it
could only do so as a spiral line and outside this spiral, well, that is
oblivion, to us, we can't get at it, or to it, or else it can't get to us,
or if it already has gotten to us we haven't yet the instruments, the words
