I Was: Away Poem by Douglas Scotney
I Was: Away
I was looking up 'mantra'
in relation to 'it's all good'
(what I'm sensitive to today) .
As happens looking up,
I digressed to words by the way.
To manumit is to set free
and marasmus is a wasting away;
manumit from the Latin
for 'the hand' and 'to send',
marasmus from the Greek 'to decay'.
