“I wrote woanders (en. elsewhere) having being inspired by a German poem written by Heloïse Ph. Palmer entitled La-Ura. The original poem appears below. The English version, written by the same author, reads: “although remote / yet present / here / for once, this very day / stirring appearance / no less whilst beholding / sans haste, / sans urge / to be”, says John Palmer.
