that said, would love to see it played out more and including being offset w/some humor too…

but, terrific job and memorable picture-conjuring…

I haven’t totally figured it out, but I can see the night world of the rivers you deal with is a frightening place for you. I hope having done this helps. My favorite of your several striking images is the bird shadows. Very mysterious image.

Sometimes, when I am dozing off, I have dreams that last but a second or two or even a split second but in which long spans of time can unfold. Today I had one that included a long, broad, river I know and it troubled me, because the river emptied into the ocean suddenly and squarely, with no delta – and the delta of this river is long and braided.

I wonder if your essay sparked this dream?
