this is so deeply spectacular Jennifer and I can so deeply spectacularly relate---you can't cosplay your old life or even one bit of one life for another (I've probably tried and it didn't work---more out of cluelessness than anything intentional...) in any case but I suppose your presence in each life makes the poetry a g-damn miracle. Thank you for this and to Seema and your client and both places for the seeds. -D

Yes indeed! Thanks for reading and I love that you know both places deeply, too!

As someone who loves her current life and location and also carries a constant melancholy about the city and parts of my old life there, this really hit home
