Separation Suspended in airFlights of supersonic speedor your fanciesI’ve landed in a liminal spacewhere the afterthoughtsgive way for thoughtsabout to arriveI start relating with the footnotewhich gives respite from the passageadding more to what you already knew andto understand better what you will knowThe umbilical cord is cutand I arrive at the threshold of change…
