"Hey!
Hey Lady!
Lady! Hey!"

Words approximate to:
are proximate to:
Subways.

Tickets and newspapers and lights
and people not talking but
silently listening.

[Woman]

Numbers are doors into places that
are yet to be
are not yet been;

are ahead
are rolling ahead
are ahead of us all.

Emptying streets in the sunlight as
something important happens with
outcomes - unknown outcomes.

Beneath everything they say:
nearly everything that is said:
acknowledging what appears to be said.

"Do you think we need to lose some weight?
No, really -
do we ?"

Where did they go with that why
Nothing was said to nobody
Who didn't hear?

[Woman]
- Travelled so far

Additionals attract the many.
Fewer are the fewer and fewer.
The subtractors haven't.

Gather no moss ye rose buds
Ye flying clocks
Melting onto these tableaux

What is it
Is it
It is

How far down do they plumb
This line - how long
Strung along

[Woman] so very far
Yet still so very far
To go

How far?
How to say how far?
How to say?

To the end of anything at all -
What
When

is this then the end
of the end of things,

lady?
