The moment when reaching finds you across a continent and a time zone, in daylight you are not standing in. Cool air. The sun has real weight and the light is hard to look into. Wind moving through things. What carries to me from there: lake air and diesel exhaust on my own smelling of it; grilling meat and industrial smoke reached toward rather than from standing in it. The distance matters. The reaching itself, visible, real, held between Cleveland and Bursa, between daylight and night. Not completion. Not admiration. The reaching itself, and the body knowing it.
