Much in the light and darkness
Borges
He wonders who is writing his essay
Whose name is on the letters

I
In the same way
I wonder who writes the food ticket at work
Who rings in the food
Who makes the drinks
Who does the spiel
I vanish into my mind
Thinking about the poems I write
The poems I am going to write
This poem
This word
This

Then, I come back. Where am I?
