Are there seals nearby or selkies swimming and calling, wondering about the land?
Each hexagon becomes a multi-dimensional plurality of earth and light in their eyes, a wonder,
a proliferation of diamond lights. Do these basalt columns belong to seals, selkies, mythical creatures, to giants, to the ocean, the grasses and mosses, seaweeds, the land, to us?
