1. I don't know how to be sexy in this element. 
The air makes everything move too fast.
In the days when I lived underwater I felt textures of things that lived, grew and formed in liquid; my hand passed over the infinite silkiness of a sea cucumber, the bright metal flecks of a fish; abalone saucers like the ones distributed under coffee cups in the cafe.
Picture
2. Rough oysters, razor mussel shells, blast and sting of anemone, all experienced through slow sway and cold and viscosity unlike anything I'll ever know again.
​I had nothing to tell that world, couldn't speak if I wanted to, only ghastly underwater yells that blurred words to meaninglessness.

3. We signed, we made facial expressions and I kept to myself as much as I could. I succeeded so thoroughly that the words no longer came to me, not in passing a human, swimming by, not in messages sent ashore - who will I write, then - nor, even in the moment when it counted, when I watched the people around me begin to fade, when their faces pressed the green glass and I couldn't - or wouldn't - lift the cable to speak to those above.
​That time is gone.

4. My life had been change, on the surface, a constant internal and external adjustment, like I was a tacky lawn ornament, spinning wildly with the prevailing metaphoric winds.
 Of course when I returned to the surface, I discovered that in the interim, submersion had become unnecessary.
​We know which pier extends the farthest, and we follow that one.
