Distance usually bears a sense of symmetry, in that the distance from A to B is interchangeable with the distance from B to A. What about the distance between my feet and my eyes, between your eyes and the back of my head, between my hand and those clouds, between the running race and the rock song, between the bump and the fall, between the bend and the sigh, your thoughts and your prayers? Somewhere between the iris and the retina everything is inverted and the distance is greater to get there than to come back.
