The Arch

Arch-rival

This is the arch I pass under
when I get too caught up in
my mind

Distracted by my thinking
wondering about the images
of crucifix
of levels, of ribs

Penitent, I bow
because I have a focus beyond
this one

Arch-enemy

That is, my mind, my
distraction point, the fuzzy
image

Just coming into focus.
