Till China and Africa meet,
And the river jumps over the mountain
And the salmon sing in the street”

“Vi er alt krek som lever langs breddene, langs elvestrendene. Vi fyller nettene. Vi er alle svarte små skjolddyr lenger inne på land – vi som har små hol å krype inn i når steinane over oss blir vende rundt. Vi er alle som borar i slammet når straumen botnfell. Vi borar i sakene og lever uendeleg. Vi er der nede og der inne som lyset ikkje når, vi har vårt eige lys, vi kravlar forbi einannan med lysa våre, og kravlar vidare einsame i stort mørker.”
