there is always that space there just before they get to us that space that fine relaxer the breather while say flopping on a bed thinking of nothing or say pouring a glass of water from the spigot while entranced by nothing
that gentle pure space
it's worth
centuries of existence
say
just to scratch your neck while looking out the window at a bare branch
that space there before they get to us ensures that when they do they won't get it all
