​Moment
Before the seagull lands.
Before lips meet.
Before hands are held
Between sleep and wakening.
Before food touches the tong.
Before you step under the shower.
Before diving into a wave.
 
The doing before the doing.
The thought before the actual.
The anticipation before fruition.
 
​Before the seagull lands, it’s mission soon to be fulfilled; flight, incessant search, guile, diversion, stealth, agility, capture, return to safe ground. All moments collected and connected in this one feeding enterprise. It’s the moment before the landing that is most electric; fusing it’s past, present and anticipated moment of fulfillment.

What was the moment for the starfish? Will the gull be able to hold on to it? What then?
That’s another moment.
