What does it mean to be human?

 What does it mean to be human?!  Photos: Ramona Aristide drink your tea it gets cold  I am human, therefore   I am a fragile spiderweb in the murky corners of my mind.  I float and sink in indeterminacy   Like the iridescent tentacles of a jellyfish   I glow in the semidarkness of my sea  But first, drink your tea   My sur/face is carved with a small entry  occluded by the humming of a lost language,   I am layers of m/loss liquid absences-sentences I am trapped in this hollowed-out mind  the fabric of my body is soft and permeable when fissured.  But first, drink your tea   I play uncertainty  on the staves of time   on the spreadsheet of tasks                                              play life and ask  What does it mean to be homo sapiens?...
