A dense fog slips over the pond's abyss,
preventing it from fathoming the depths
and lengths of its own being.

Fingers: ropes stretching
until they become a soul.

We walked hands held fingers entwined until the moisture between us had circu-ambulated, and we could breathe, again

our own breaths, breathing together
on the planet with a local address in
a cosmos known as data sent home.

Fog lifts, and the pond is
not what it seemed to be.
