Reemerge in a soup.
Live in transparency and in parallel.
Layers of sheets cover the cities. Air and water.
Everything oscillates outside temporal patterns.
Heat rises.
Veins in hands. Veins in leaves.
Arteries in roots.
Vessels in rhizomes.
Tears and blood. Coral.
Mycelium and spores.
Swing and mill. Stone, path and road.
Tracheae.
Surface tension.
Waves and oscillations.
Air and saliva.
Blackberries and alveoli. Sutures and meanders.
Forms within a bulge.
Convection and magnetism.
Self-regulation. Metamorphosis.
To be solar.
Incommensurable bubbles.
Outside of a tidal bulge.
To swim. Skin.
Earth is exhaled.
The dust that covers bones rises high and settles in the foam.
Sponges of serum and spines of calcium whisper stories.
To feel the cold.
To be volatile.
To exit the boundary layer of language.
To breathe.
