The webbing between our toes and our innate ability to swim
as a neonate, swiftly disappear as we begin to ground ourselves in the world.
When our gullets are no longer reliant on being coated by our mother’s milk, the sounds shaping words can start to form, but in doing so we lose our singular pre-vocal communion.
And until our infant eyes and brain can attest to the material permanence of an object, babies are blessed by not being immured in fixed notions of reality.
And on entry into the world, we surrender our immortality and start approaching death.
