What have we yet to miss?
How many ways can we converse? More usefully, what are the neighborhoods along the train trip from coast to coast? How might we notice all the shifts? There are perhaps clues in the numberless songs of birds, dolphins, whales, deer, bear, humans; take these to the powers of the subtle, the gross, and the unnumbered emotions; then consider the subjects of all poems ever expressed and ever to be expressed. What have we yet to miss?

Every day all day long
We call it thinking
Really it is talking
Thinking together may be the only thinking
