Here lies a body split into three: spirit, joy, and mass. It celebrates the memory of a past soul, reminding us of the end of things. As the water evaporates, salt grows over everything, leaving a brilliant mark. The salt binds us to those we have lost and protects us from the noxious ones. Yet it also corrodes, transforming copper into cyan — a faint memory of itself.
