Preparations
We said good bye to our families, our pets, our houses, our cars, our plants, our jobs, our windows, our meals, our mountains, our trees, our skies, our doors, our ideas, our blood, our photographs, our computers, our sidewalks, our constellations, our rivers, our cities, our dirt, our efforts at reconciliation, our smoke stacks, our landfills, our planes, our volcanoes, our trains, our ships, our railroads, our hair, our blinks, our sculptures, our coupons, our cutlery, our desires for justice, our clothes, our brains, our skin, our bones, our voting pamphlets, and our insanity. Then we stepped off the world.
