[ for ari ]

• the sea bulges and life rises. it is home
• the sea roils and rumbles, and the life that was not meant for it drowns. this, too, is home
• (someone will remember us, i say, even in another time)
• 'lies you have told yourself: your humanity is the largest burden you will bear'
• the water shines silver with moonlight. white sunshine shimmers over laughing waves
• 'our dead will drink the sea'
