In the quiet sea of empty space, there are many lonely stars.

In the space between space, there is still loneliness, but it is between creatures and people, not the stars. The cosmic nooks and crannies.

In every sea is an eventual river, an eventual lake, an eventual nest. In some solar systems, the night lark is a transcendent beast. Birth by night burial.

In one culture, on one lonely planet, the night lark is a demonic warlock. The people and the night lark live with each other, apart from each other.

To understand the night lark is to understand universal existence.

To understand existence is to wade in the lake of reflection and reflect.
