“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost."

Hunchback lamplight,
chairs spinning dust in the air,
eyes floating on puffy clouds,
dancing to the morning pulse.
Humming along the tracks of swallowed stars,
dizzy among the blank walls of the world.
In the beginning, there was nothing –
or rather,
there was something,
just above the morning sun’s reach.
