Go/no go

I know this is MISC, still, some in-line comments:


The crooked place
where go moves immaculately forward
while no go retreats. 
Maybe ?: 
It's a crooked place
where go meets no go              


Outside, the dog barks against the cold. I like this line.  Perhaps expand on it?
My mind finds liberation
in definition.  I turn to my winter-count: 
the roots of words,
a son’s ghost, and strike "and"? line break at ghost?
a time before go,
even before no go. you could end it right here and I'd be fine

It’s an even orbit and a soft landing,
this circling of words
that defy the robot go/no go. maybe "robotic"? S.3 as a whole is too abstract, and lets me down.  Too soft of a landing.

Good suggestions all.  I want to actually work more into S. 1, about the "meeting" of the two.  I originally was going to end where you suggested, but it felt lacking a needed circle back.  Thanks for the notes.
