she seen the thing but did not have the thing. to speak is to act knowledge the gnaw ledge that i knew nothing. sigh lance as the shifting eyes carved into small hands.

small hands have seen before knowing;

seen before understanding.

understanding.

undrstandin.

undstndin.

upstanding.

understanding implies buried beneath standing. i am up. up but not up.

to speak is to act knowledge. acknowledge the gnaw. gnawing.

breaking down the voice’s voices,

ripping me apart

as part of the ripping.

sound replaced with silence.

silence coupled with sight.

no choice no choice no choice but to sprinkle, sound in my silence.

this time she will be Seen and

Heard.

this time, silence will acknowledge that she chose music. and they chose violence.

this time, time will act knowledge; this time, time will be given no choice

finally visible, allowing nothing but a sigh

to leave the gaping hole that is my mouth.

silence.

sigh lance.
