I'm so obsessed with these moments of erotic worldmaking + wayfinding in the shadow of power–– where the eroticism of engagement with the woods, moss, damp, dark gets all tangled in lesbian erotics both in a more conventionally sexual dynamic and in other forms of closeness and touch. I also see an erotics of recognition both in your process (the progression from nonviolent to violent imagery, for example) and in the ways Black lesbians are moving across the page wrt you as author, us as audience, and each other!
