AXIOM

They say—Light 

is uncatchable

weightless

ageless

incorruptible. 

But without an observer—

a serpent 

to proffer 

the choice—all this 

becomes nonsense.

If I never needed 

to say anything again

would I?

How would I 

decide?

How would I 

make clear that I haven't 

decided?

What could it mean 

for an axiom 

to vacillate

between 

higher—or even alternate 

dimensions?
