The nameless voyage

James Laughlin 
(1914-1997)

Where does she go

when she closes her eyes

when we are making love?



She is there by my side

yet she isn't there

If I touch her she trembles

but says nothing



One night I asked her

where it was she travelled

This time she smiled and

answered don't be worried



I'll never be far from you

The land which I visit

is the land of the poems

you have written for me.
