in a world i thought was barren and in which i felt alone, i suddenly found eyes all around me. eyes, "I"s everywhere. the very ground i walked, the clothes i wore, the ocean i loved. i saw how my molecules would be returned to the ocean. i saw how my molecules would be returned to the ocean. i longed for my molecules to dance again, like dolphins, in the streams. i saw how the ocean, even if humanity destroyed itself, would still be there. it had been here before, it would be there after. i saw that the molecules of my ancestors were in the waters
when people talk about grandfathers living in the rocks, they are being literal. the same way i would return, my ancestors had returned, i heard a thousand voices brimming. the same ocean, i had once walked by, so dead and far away, brimming and teeming with a thousand voices. eyes, ears, all around me, underneath me, in my clothes, eyes, ears all around
