I want to return, return again, to you
as human being, naked, living in fragile moments,
finding a place in the world just like me,
and with needs and aspirations that
are rooted in the ancient call to survival
that has always been there, even if it is
covered now in layers of artifice,
even if we think we have moved beyond our
biology and the voice of the calling blue earth
that determines everything we are and will ever be—
to you, and only you, I want to return.
