6Swans fly overhead singing goodbye \
7to we walkers of the earth. You point \
8to them in formation, you tell me \
9you are not you. You are the air the swans \
10walk on as they journey like pilgrims \
11to a temple in the south. A curtain \
12there separates me from you, swans \
13from the air they fly through. I say \
14that you are no longer the temple, \
15that you have been through fire \
16and are now less than ash. You are \
17a mirror of me, the air without a swan. \
18Together, we are each other. You \
19and I have both nothing and everything \
20at once. We own the world and nothing in it.
