searching for a beginning,
floating in the salt water.
the structure of your presence,
your possible murderer.
and it seems memorable
to exist in two ways,
the contours of your shape
the compounds of your character.

new artifacts from previous eras.

freight trains. it reminded me of when you are on an airplane and the wheels lift off the ground and that intrinsic piece of
you remains on the ground and your body is pulling away.
