“the simplest definition of our learning to count to infinity”
wrote those words
to a stranger in pain, awful pain,
asking him to count his blessings
now awful pain
no stranger to me
a pain four decades long,
that the surgeon promised was fully excised.
but today was triggered,
chest pain dagger ingredient emergency room
so I am counting for,
but not to,
counting on
infinity
when the wounding cannot be recalled,
only a minor scar to struggle from wonder whence
came it from
which is the definition of reaching the
infinity place,
where finite comes to rest
