i once read that
there are names for the spaces
in between
body parts,
architectural structures,
musical notes.
names for spaces
as if they are
real
concrete
solid
and not just
gaps
voids
silences
like
buccal vestibule of the maxilla
is a space between the cheek and lateral face
or piscina
is a space in a wall near an altar
and
F A C E are the spaces
in between
the lines of a staff.
spaces with names
because they are part of something.
even if technically they are
"spaces" and not just
hollow
empty
blank
so i think their names suits them well.
because at least you know
what to call them.
but there is also a space
between you and me
it bears no name
and i think
this suits us
just as well.
