Subjects [excerpt]

You see them through water and glass,

(both liquids) and through air

with plenty of liquid in it

—water is moving through the air—

you see the large dolphins animated,

unfractious in their native

drink, going

back and forth interacting with

some sort of rings—in a minute-long video—

in a loop, we see these

dolphins again and again

looping through rings,

in indirect discourse

ringing through the loops.

We see, you see, dolphins

advertising something

we don't have and

we don't want; advertising

exfoliants and astringents,

humectants,

which dolphins don't

know about and wouldn't

want if they did, the

sloe-eyed ones.  They

make us feel free,

silent. "Nature film,

nature film!" See them

in their independence

through water and glass articulating

dolphin home truths.
