DENSITY OF MATERIAL POSSESSIONS

Each object thrown away took a weight out of my own density. I felt lighter, not missing an entity that was once part of mine: books, tools, notebooks, computers, mattresses, an Omar Rayo lithograph, a set of depression era plates, Ariel’s rocks and tables, a photo of my mother. Some objects took longer to disappear from my mass, moving slowly out of the body into themselves. Although it is almost impossible to know how the Mayans applied their ch’ull cosmology, one wonders if it provided the formula to completely separate one corpus from another.
