in the silence, a question, perhaps:
what is the point of endless forward motion
if there is nothing to move towards?
(or maybe just why?
but i am much more inclined to hear what isn’t said
than what is.)
here we are in the target scenario, though,
where we are going somewhere rather than nowhere.
can it be called aimlessness if we are
aiming blind? if we are pointing and running fast as we can
in some random direction?
it feels pointless to me. it feels more aimless
than going nowhere at all, i must say. how we were
all but convinced we were going somewhere
and when we ran out of breath we found that, in fact,
we had gone nowhere at all.
