“Yonder loosestrife, gusts carry into sea. Totemic wing. Ghost wafts above water, unravels the seismic splay of muscle tissue in the flow. Waves lap into relentless roars. Ghost in a landscape of rain carves bone beyond aviary. Water curls form a heaviness in the body. North-coast. Clef wave with ghost made of fig leaves. A storm groans with compost hands to return cyan-blue to the sea. The listless downpour submerges ghost but ghost rises to the surface with gills. Water is a memory trail of floodlines.”

“I learn about beauty through a rough translation of Kurunthokai — verse 37. You could argue it says more about the nature of elephants, but it says a fair bit about beauty. When the female elephant is hungry, the male elephant strips off the bark of a toddy palm. The sap flows and quenches her thirst.”
