Ignore the to-the-top-of-your-head hammer pounding in your ears. Cry out to your loved ones who are dead. They won't hear you — but you'll feel closer to them when you glare down at the abyss. Listen to the surf crashing on the beach. The breaking up and letting go. It has a kind of seeing without eyes. And your whole body knows this. And your whole body knows this.
