Even before having the eyes to do so.
Within my mothers body. In this strange land.
The spaces of becoming.
Set into the folds.
The location where inertia shifts
from over there
to over here.
Like angels who sing their songs in harmony
with both the living and the non living.
The departure.
The shape of a sound moving across bodies of water.
Simultaneous revolutions.
To depend on distance.
The sound returns.
