cold hard facts
things that arouse scientists
and others with reason to wear
sterile white coats
an inch a foot a meter
just mortal ways of understanding
here to there
and there to where
but even dung beetles can measure
distance with their frequent
pauses from transporting their
excremental gold
thigh to thigh
elbow to elbow
the measurement is minute
but the distance is gargantuan
hollow hollow
through and through
the wind can still nestle between us
