Strange that if you slow down to a certain point, you think you're crawling, then you look at the speedometer and you see 60 miles an hour. I've been doing it forever, but every now and then, it strikes me as quite bizarre. It also reminds me of the difference in our worlds and the worlds of yesteryear. Tess walked for miles and thought she left one world for the next. I travel further each day just to go to work and think it's all the same.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('654','Cuchulain'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('654','Cuchulain','There is something very strange about driving, especially in a fairly straight line, on and on and on.

Thus: your idiom establishes a relativity to this other idiom and thereby strengthens the real, or emotional force, of events within and without the poem. The italicized "exactly" in turn cuts across the aspect of the relative with even more directness and appeal.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('653','Robert Mueller'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('653','Robert Mueller','You tap into a cool idiom, that is to say hot and cold, impersonal and personal, that poets very recently have forgotten about.
