I remember when
I saw the world laid out flat
on a map
it dawned on me
I could do that
I could go
anywhere I cared to see
all that was required was time
all the time in the world
lined up chronologically
I read it from left to right
continents and countries
oceans and vast seas
at my fingertips
and at my feet
and I promised myself the earth
