Tips for Measuring the World
Start somewhere.
Bring your foot close to you then far away.
If the self feels scattered you are doing it right.
Check your pockets seven times and on the eighth time
you will find your ring.
I already looked there but discovery is a creature
who likes to play.
Disappear a penny by sliding it down a parking meter’s throat.
Collect Bats of the World postage stamps.
Save the baby bat for the letter you have the most trouble with.
In all of the objects in one city choose a stone you love the most.
Cast your love onto it when you go on walks.
Train your wistfulness muscle.
Maybe it can just be easy.
Love this line: '... discovery is a creature / who likes to play."
