Wanting a Child Jay Deshpande Here in California, we can drive through any landscape, field, flower, forest, all in reach, at sunset, affording not to notice the exhaust left in our stead. A daytrip takes us to the edge of the continent, leaning out over some precipice, looking back. We are home by dinner, the house soft colour, where our bodies move through dark’s thin language and something calls, urgently, from after.
