I'm afraid of water :
the ambiguity of space - sound - the lack of feelings beneath it :
there is an inherent voidness - it is rolling glass
In the photo the iceberg has just turned over
revealing its Coke bottle undersides - polished by the salt
within hours the surface will crack in the cold - will cover in snow :
I pray for smoothness
transparency
the crack of cold air on wet surface :
light penetrates regularly only to 200 meters
between 200 and 1000 meters is the twilight zone - photosynthesis ceases and then at 1000 it all goes black - the midnight zone is where things go blind - eyeless - colorless :
the octopus can stand on it's tentacles
spread out its skin - this is called the Nosferatu pose :
at some point I remember being able to float
that first time - it was like a stomach turning upside down
and I was scared shitless :
there is some sort of spreading out - a blackness - ink-like
polished in its opaqueness - purpling in the sunset :
whiskey over cubes - the sound
