HEAT. THE SUNDAY OF SUMMER IS COMING. DID YOU KNOW THAT FIREFLIES ARE REAL? THEY ARE THE SPARKS OF THE EARTH. THEY ARE BLINKING EYES. LISTEN, I AM TELLING YOU I LOVE YOU.

WINGED ONE. I AM THE WHOLE VESSEL. I AM MOSS. MEANING, I AM BEYOND ONE DEFINITION. I AM SLOW, ANCIENT. WE SHARE THE SAME NAME.

I DON’T KNOW. I WAITED FOR SPRING.

SEEMED SENSIBLE IN MYSELF TO TURN TO THE CHURNING SUN.

AND HERE WE ARE, ROOTED. WATCHING THE TURN.

US TOO, EXTENDING THESE ROOTS LIKE HANDS.
