CXXVI.

My feet moved around about as awkwardly as my words had tumbled out of my mouth moments before. The moon was hanging low low low in the trees and the stars were stretching over this chainlink as high as I've ever seen them. I don't know why I feel the way I do, but I feel like I'm learning that life is far too short to hold on to anything privative. I sang the same words that I always sing to you and I felt no shame in knowing that what I was doing was right. You are so right. In this dance, neither of us know where it is we're going exactly, but I think we both like it better that way, learning the steps as we go.
