Here I see the ants

and I watch as they run over each other, and the ones exiting the space under the paving slabs all carry a single piece of dirt, or pollen, or sometimes a larger pieces of flinty grit or a longer portion of twig, the size of a second hand on an analogue watch. And as they carry the dirt a few inches outside the nest, I see them place it on the ground with care and for me it fractures the ground into a million deliberately placed granules: it becomes a busy night sky luminous with a thousand million stars, their positions chosen by a God whose rationale is hidden from me. One ant tugs at the same flint for whole minutes, pushing and dragging it over the deliberately placed dirt.

I think of my words, scattered over the world, where they are seen by other people but the mysterious order is only known to myself, the meaning of their placements, and then I think of something previously unconsidered: the far more intricate hollow in my own mind, created as the words have been excavated. What shape is that nest? How do I live there?
