The world is an aquarium; I see everything close up and yet cut off, made of some other substance;
I keep falling outside myself, without dizziness, without blur, into precision
—RB, A Lover’s Discourse

Παλιέ μου φίλε τι γυρεύεις
(My old friend, what are you looking for?)
—Giorgos Seferis, ‘Return of the Exile’
