About this poem"'Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles' is taken from a sign I found outside a hostel in Lijiang, China, a beautiful city in the Yunnan province. September 2018 The sun doesn't need more heat, so why should you? "'Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles' is taken from a sign I found outside a hostel in Lijiang, China, a beautiful city in the Yunnan province. December 2016 Even the muzzle over my mouth could not kill me, though Inever slept soundly through the silence. April 2017 In Lijiang, the sign outside your hostel glares: Ride alone, ride alone, ride alone – it taunts you for the mileage of your solitude, must be past. Everywhere still—palelegs exposed to infernal snow.I want to trust the mohair, to keep me warm—I want to trustthe cloth that holds me close.But in this room, the spotlight flatters. I dreamt the worst was over but it wasn’t.

Then the white plague came, and their pleas were like a river. February 2020 September 2017 I imagined traveling for 2418 miles alone, and at the time, I think I’d traveled even further than that, going halfway around the world in utter silence.
