Torn

1

If the whole ragged

current

were a creature,

we could expect it

to both anticipate

and remember

the splash it makes

here

on this rock,

its acrobatic performance

of momentum

run through

to the point of

distraction.

In this series,

sleeper agents

live our lives—

some version of our lives—

with (what might be)

this difference:

most of what they do

is feigned,

but not all.

That’s what keeps us

riveted.
