The steady holding that doesn't require closing distance. Kruthro in Cotonou, Keitrae in Cairo, Elysird in Fortaleza, each in their own light, their own air. The reaching that works across space because it's already there, in the knowing itself. Not striving toward, but resting in what persists. The morning dark here in Berlin, the weight and texture of bonds that don't break when they quiet.
