sometimes the desire is bigger than the possibility

there is a tiny light floating horizontally across the milky way. a satellite adoring the earth. watching over its every detail, recording each change of weather, each shift of the land...
away in Eurasia, a man sighs on arrival. a woman in California worries over a friend. a little blond girl wakes up in a tidy room. the beach opens up before another woman, as she walks into the sea. someone starts up their computer to look for news.
I sit, writing and reading, in a sunny room. happy to know they're all there, here, with me.
