About the Feature
Listen. The moon could
slice through this dark, this
thick water, that which looks
like dark here, and which
looks enough like water. Where
is the animal tonight? He
doesn’t know the answer him
self. Watch me build
a house, build something,
he says. Everyone can hear him.
There are bridges that can take
our weight, and planks of wood
create music as
they react. It could be anyone, and anyone could be dancing.
