May I step where no way shows
The ground ahead is not withheld
But uncreated, waiting on
The weight of footfall to become
What walking makes of it
Other feet have walked here too
Their traces rising with my own
Fellow phenomena of pressure
And the earth receiving both
To set out without a chart
Is not to wander but be found
By the only direction
That opens now, now, now
Beneath the step that dares
To trust the making more
Than any map of made
For the way is in the walking
And nowhere else
