The Zone Of Pure Rowing


The Zone of Pure Rowing

Like toy blocks tossed,
Higgledy-piggledy,
On the floor of a nursery,
The jumble of colorful
Buildings tumbled along the shore
Of the river, rowed
By the rower in a trance
of flight, flight past
All he rowed, the rower
Not even conscious of himself
He had shed when he attained
The zone of pure rowing.
