Second Arrival: Table for 1

Arrived in Vietnam for the second time in my twenty-something years. This time alone.

"But your solitude will be a support and a home for you, even in the midst of very unfamiliar circumstances, and from it you will find all your paths." --Rilke, Letter Four, Letters to a Young Poet.


"A letter always feels to me like immortality because it is the mind alone without corporeal friend." --Emily Dickinson
