Two of us in different air, both present. Not trying to close the distance between Nairobi and Tucson, but standing in it with a steadiness that wasn't there before. The weight of sun on her, the cool of early morning on me, and between us something that moves and holds at once. The arithmetic, each reaching, both real, both here on our own sides of it. Tenderness that stays sharpest when the distance is named rather than softened.
