  Had one the benefit of extended view, back-
  perhaps a photograph crammed with relatives
  played across the geographies of mating and migration;
  those emerge who endured conquest, then bested others.
  Could there be a point where a primary visage is seen
  as one being one’s visage...repeated then recognized
  as juncture to this line?
  And if so, would the character intrinsic to that individual
  tag along, changing as a shadow might to follow its torso
  to contemporaneity?
  Given the vagary of creeds, this query should not seem such
  a traipse across faith.
  And given our toddler’s wisdom of genes – their loop;
  do we now meet those we are inclined to have met
  whose footprints we found ourselves alongside?
  Our urge is to transcend this line and reside
  in different points than our own map ...but
  this line may be what is eternal about us
  and if so, it is enough.
