6The self is a serengeti \
7a wide grassland with baobab trees \
8reaching their roots deep into earth \
9like a child into a clay pot \
10A wind blows there or seems to blow \
11if he holds it up to his ear the air shifts \
12like stones in a stream uncovering a crawfish \
13it finds another hiding place watching you \
14Its eyes are blacker than wind \
15on the serengeti they are the eyes of a predator \
16they are coming toward you or receding \
17a storm cloud builds on the horizon \
18Are you running toward the rain or away from it \
19Do you stand still and crouch hoping for silence
