Rydra Wong is mysteriously beamed into post-apocalyptic California. By chance, she meets Obsidian. She realizes that they are both impaired. While she can retain the act of speaking, she realizes that Obsidian can only write.

Rydra remembers that it is Thanksgiving, and in her attempt to honor the traditions of the past, she would like to have a feast. On her way to scavenge for food, she enlists the help of Obsidian. She taps his shoulder and then her own, holding up her index and second fingers tightly together to ensure that they are together. She wants to make sure she can trust him, since they are both less impaired, and this can be dangerous. They are usually targets of jealousy an rage.

Once they reach home, Rydra and Obsidian work in tandem to cook dinner. They use signs and body language to indicate the next steps of the recipe. Finally finished with the cooking, they sit in an empty dining room of Rydra's 4 bedroom house.

Alone and safe at last, Rydra and Obsidian are able to fully experience the catharsis of opening up. Obsidian writes on paper that he is happy to have found her, and he felt so alone in the world. Rydra whispers that if it weren't for him, this might've been her last meal. While they don't understand each other, they finally feel some sense of freedom to share their impairment without risk of attack. Lastly, they commicate to eachother using touch. They touch eachother to say, "I am with you, no matter what."

Even though this is in a different language, I thought it conveyed the meaning of poetry in space. Since this novel is about language, I even thought it fitting, that it wasn't in English, yet still made sense.

On their journey to earth, Rye disusses the importance of poetry with Nyles. They agree that it is the highest form of communication. They also talk about the significance of language, and how it might be used to control a civilization. Rye says, "we think that language is a mechanism for controlling thought, but in fact, language is thought."
