The song he will never hearWhen you saw me you understood that I was so completely unlike you that I might as well have been one of the fishes that slipped by dozen from your net and upon the shore. I was like a whale, like a seal, with eyes that seemed to bear all the sadness of the sea, an immense and mourning creature, older than the sediments sunken and layered above each other at the bottom of the ocean. I knew things that no human knew. I was young then, and yet I had been born old. But my face – my face was human – and human my words – and this mind, this whale's mind, this sea-lion's mind, in a human body with a human voice – tha The song he will never hear

MeetingsWe first met When I was a girl The Icelandic winter was rough And you marvelled at my ability to swim naked in the slushy water.
Later - many springs later - I had cast off my seal-skin -
And you recognized me among my companions. The shore flowers bloomed honey-sweet And the sea smelled of salt and rain.

ShiverAn earthquake rolls across her skin as green curtains reserve a space for construction - he looks at splattered bed sheets and cradles a small shiver.
He inhales, holds the breath. Hands calloused by supermarket boxes grip the railing. Cord of blood and sweat fused into life is taken into other, more precise palms.
