This is what it means to be all-knowing:
to divine how, at a downtown crossing,
two paths intersect, the walkers never
looking up or slowing, but ever
so slightly, the hems of two garments
brush each other, leaving only hints
of what was not to be a meeting
of two familiars, greeting
each other with a kiss, an embrace,
but only two people in a shared space
with no connection besides your godlike eye,
confident in a marvelous geometry.
