Summer in a Briefcase and Point

Or to sit down with a pen, as he did, smearing words across a page dotted made nine he couldn’t tell that a year was leaking into an ink splotch around the eyes he drew to resemble caves he fled.   Of course, he always opened his eyes to the moment once the moment opened its eyes to him and they had this staring match going until he saw the moment as a mirror . . . a staring match against  ?
