It occasionally settles,
when you least expect it...
after the turbines have slowed
to an alarming rate.
When your patience has exercised
to a formidable state.
An indomitable condition.

We'll talk to ourselves slowly,
comforting and calm,
to ease this transition.
This body is a vessel;
a bulwark of flesh,
enlivened by blood.
Hallowed and haunted.
Waiting for fulfillment.

Ready for something...
even if it's nothing.

-Kevin James
