Worm casts of presence and absence as a single state
In flux a showing forth of becoming
Sound of water signposted at a crossroads
Direct to its origins footnotes to the silence
On a blank slate the breath of God
Mirrored on the surface a missing word

Dog breath in its drawing back is God
Awakened to a patient etherized upon a table
Rerum Novarum the progress of light across a modern slum
Knowing naught the soft suppuration of naysayers
Nevermore a raven fills the mouths of the poor
Extinct light-bringers compose a nocturne
Solstice night what does it profit amid the stars?
Soliloquy of the drip by drip withdrawal of sight
