the stars I can see and those I will never see / will not ever again be in the same places / as they are at this moment
***
we are all here together without knowing it / flying at a speed beyond thinking
—W.S. Merwin (1927-2019), from “One October Night” (Garden Time, 2016)

The world today
is slowcore,
a rhythm section
