A pulse that never reached the air,
where the ground cracks open,
but no weight falls through.
A flicker burns,
but the flame never touches the wick.
Time folds over itself
a thread pulled thin,
but not unraveled.
A voice is lost
before it’s born,
and nothing moves to fill the gap.

A pulse that never reached the air,
where the ground cracks open,
but no weight falls through.
A flicker burns,
but the flame never touches the wick.
Time folds over itself
a thread pulled thin,
but not unraveled.
A voice is lost
before it’s born,
and nothing moves to fill the gap.
