Where I Reside
—Rainer Maria Rilke
There are infinities;
Gaps
In our togetherness,
Starry spaces
And desert skies—
And then
A great chasm
Greater than
The Boötes void,
With so few stars
To break the darkness…
And that’s where
I reside.
—Rainer Maria Rilke

I am really loving this poem John. I read it about 10 times and found myself in a different place each time. So cool!! :-D
You are very intuitive! I taught poetry for years and found different levels of comprehension and enjoyment on various readers' parts - it's a different way of knowing and your instincts are good. Thank you.
