But the appeal to the domestic garden
is not a claim
that a fixed abode
and routines
are paths to duration.
True, it arises from
repeated daily events,
but it does not depend on staying put
and on the familiar.
I have never experienced duration
in my favourite place...

ex Peter Handke, To Duration
(Scott Abbott translation of Gedicht an die Dauer, 1986, described in Cannon Magazine No. 4 (2015) /
The Last Books — a great project — here)

Thinking about age/aging, being afloat, duration.
