for Sumi Mathai

A fish's life isn't easy. Look at me. I cannot close my eyes I cannot stop moving I cannot help hearing All that I never wanted to.

I do not sleep I do not dream All I know That a few strokes ahead I will kiss the cold reflection of my own self.

Thank you, Lord, for this glass cage...
