Episode 60 - We've Been Waiting

PLEASE READ THE CONTENT WARNINGS BEFORE YOU LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE.

no person is an island?
an island is a person.
a person is an island
on an island
that's a person.
an island that's a person is a person slowly burning.

to make island of a person,
isolate and make uncertain.
to make person of an island,
stay so long your presence turns twin.
an island's soul grows slowly but quite surely if you're fervent.

the island-person's version of the world is heavy-curtained-
her voice rings back in echo only hers, despite the yearning.
the island that's a person has no voice to be returning.

an island that's a person may be marked by centuries' hurting,
if the person-island's self's an island-person in recursion.
a person-island turned from life to death is made perversion.

an island-person might feel near at home, given years' turning,
on a person-island hidden from world's eye and from her kin.
her person-hood might find an island hole to be interred in.

a person-island burned might learn futility in cursing,
but an island-person presence might wake rage anew and churning.
an island-person cursed with person-island's heavy burden.
_Nasper Orion
