–the boundary–is where the work gets done…

The walls of the lung extract from air
pass to blood, release carbon dioxide
the flood plain nourishes life
though its laws are neither land nor river

Where the two meet
—the boundary—
is where
the work gets done
different laws apply
new things happen
that could not on either side
