,,,,,,,,,¤ ,,,,,,¤¤,,
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤,, There Was This Place That For Two Years ¤¤¤¤¤,,,,¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤,,¤ I Couldn'T Go To. Regardless How Much ¤¤¤¤,,¤¤,,
,¤¤¤¤¤,,,, Discussed With Others, Or Pointed Out ¤¤¤,,,,,,,
,,¤¤¤,,¤¤, On Maps, I Could Not Think Of It When ¤¤,,¤¤¤¤¤¤
,,,¤,,,,,, Alone. I Would Often Travel Past The ¤,,,,¤¤¤¤,
¤¤,,,¤¤¤¤¤ Fork, Where A Right Turn Would Surely ,,¤¤,,¤¤,,
,,,¤,,¤¤¤¤ Take Me There, But Even Then, Something ¤,,,,,,,,,
¤¤,,,,,¤¤, Kept Me Away. ,,¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤,,¤¤¤,,,, ¤,,¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
,,,,¤,,¤¤, When I Finally Got There, After Some ,,,,¤¤¤¤¤¤
,¤¤,,,,,,, Heavy Subconscious Battle I Must ¤¤¤,,¤¤¤¤,
,,,,¤¤¤¤¤¤ Assume, The Place Was Surreal. An ¤¤,,,,¤¤,,
¤¤¤,,¤¤¤¤¤ Esker, Like A Needle-Thin Rift Out In ¤,,¤¤,,,,¤
¤¤,,,,¤¤¤¤ The Lake, But Ten Meters High And ,,,,,,¤¤,,
,,,¤¤,,¤¤¤ Adorned In Birch, Willow, Bracken, And ¤¤¤¤¤,,,,,
¤¤,,,,,,¤¤ Blueberries. ¤¤¤¤,,¤¤¤¤
¤,,¤¤¤¤,,¤ ¤¤¤,,,,¤¤¤
,,,,¤¤,,,, Walking Atop That Spine, I Came To ¤¤,,¤¤,,¤¤
,¤¤,,,,¤¤, Notice The View To Either Side. There ,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,¤¤,,,, Should Be Shores, Of Course, But I ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
,¤¤,,,,¤¤, Didn'T Recognize Them. First Off, They ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤,
,,,,¤¤,,,, Were Much Too Close, As The Lake Should ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤,,
¤¤¤,,,,¤¤, Stretch For A Hundred Meters More On ,¤¤¤¤¤¤,,¤
¤¤,,¤¤,,,, Both Sides. But Now I Felt I Could ,,¤¤¤¤,,,,
,,,,,,,¤¤¤ Almost Reach Out And Touch Them. And ,,,¤¤,,¤¤,
¤¤¤¤¤¤,,¤¤ Then, When I Realized Which Shores They ¤¤,,,,,,,,
,¤¤¤¤,,,,, Were, I Had To Stop. ,,,¤¤¤¤¤¤,
,,¤¤,,¤¤¤¤ ¤¤,,¤¤¤¤,,
¤,,,,,,¤¤¤ They Were Of The Right Lake. But This ¤,,,,¤¤,,¤
,,¤¤¤¤,,¤¤ Lake Is Large, Fractured, And ,,¤¤,,,,,,
¤,,¤¤,,,,, Bipartite. Like A Pair Of Lungs Carved ¤,,,,¤¤¤¤¤
,,,,,,¤¤¤¤ Into The Granite, And With No Less Than ,,¤¤,,¤¤¤¤
,¤¤¤¤,,¤¤¤ Five Communities Anchored At Various ¤,,,,,,¤¤,
,,¤¤,,,,¤¤ Points. And So, Studying These ,,¤¤¤¤,,,,
¤,,,,¤¤,,¤ Impossibly Close Shores, I Slowly ¤,,¤¤,,¤¤¤
,,¤¤,,,,,, Understood Them As Belonging Many Miles ,,,,,,,,¤¤
,,,,,¤¤¤¤¤ Away. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤,,,
¤¤¤¤,,¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤,,¤¤
¤¤¤,,,,¤¤¤ I Examined The Ridge, The Treeline ,¤¤¤¤,,,,¤
¤¤,,¤¤,,¤¤ Above. Was This What You Saw Opposite, ,,¤¤,,¤¤,,
,,,,,,,,,, From Those Other Shores? I Couldn'T ,,,,,,,,,,
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Remember. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Carrying Forward, On The Very Tip Of ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ The Esker, I Found The Ruins Of Some ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Old Building. There Were Overgrown ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Marble Staircases, Stone Floors Beneath ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ The Moss, And Strange Slabs Inserted ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Into The Slope Like Dams Against The ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Ground Itself. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Sitting There, I Could See Across The ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Narrowed Lake My Entire Path To Where I ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Sat: From The Stairwell Of My House, ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Through The Old Woods Behind The Tile ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Factory, The Bridge Over Route ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Twenty three And Then Back Under It, ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Through The Fancy Villas, Over The ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Fields, And Then That Right Turn At The ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Fork. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ And Then The Stairs Up On The Ridge. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Thinking Back, This Was Probably It. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Hidden In A Grove, There Were Stairs ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Much Like The Ones I Currently Sat On, ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Old And Worn Down, That Lead You Up ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Onto The Esker. The Point Of Entry. Had ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ I Insted Opted To Walk The Path At Its ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Foot, I'M Sure My Experience Would'Ve ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Been Different Indeed. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ On The Lake, There Were People In ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Boats. I Wondered, Could They Even See ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Me? If I Shouted, Would They Turn To ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Stare Right Through Me? ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
