What Was That?
What was that?
Not a thought
Not a feeling
Not silence
Between the breath and the breathing
Between the looking and the seen
Between the naming and the named
Something moved
Something stayed still
Something became both at once
A moment ago, I knew
Now, I know differently
Later, I will know otherwise
The certainty fractured
The fracture was perfect
The perfection was incomplete
This isn't what meant to write
This is what keeps writing itself
Are you reading it, or is it reading you?
Something changed without changing
Something stayed the same by changing
Both stories are true
Neither description captures
What can't be captured
Is already here
