we are two clouds forenoons and afternoons driving overhead,
we are seas mingling, we are two of those cheerful waves rolling over each other and interwetting each other,
we are what the atmosphere is, transparent, receptive, pervious, impervious,
we are snow, rain, cold, darkness,
we are each product and influence of the globe,
we have circled and circled till we have arrived home again, we two,
we have voided all but freedom and all but our own joy.
