transposes of Move 5 — A tear and a tide pool leave behind the same crystal.
Grief works the same arithmetic. It evaporates the day and leaves a residue you can taste. Salt is simply what remains when the water is taken away.
What the Salt Remembers
Tears, the tide, and a pinch in warm bread are the same water. A short meditation on salt as the body's memory of the sea.
concludes of Move 1 — From the lattice, back to the wave.
So we salt the bread to remember, and the sea keeps our share on deposit until we give it back.
The dialogue is concluded
Every tear is a small returning of the sea.
