Synopsis: Two souls meet in a ruin – one finding it for the first time; the other irreversibly tied. The ghostly encounter leaves the new arrival changed: sensing what happened here in this familiar yet faraway world; tentatively following threads; and seeing the path she walks echoed in this other presence.
Close to finding the source of herself, she strains to reach it, then strains to break away. Ultimately, she finds comfort in the imprints left by those who came before – and leaves her own. Filled with sadness, pain, discovery, and comfort in the ties that bind us, Deviation, Twice Removed is a poem in movement that celebrates and questions our inner inheritances.
