cliché, but
really:
the spaces
are for all
the things
I'm not saying.
Look, I'm not
making
excuses;
even music
uses silence—
or is it
silence that uses
music
to both
introduce and
excuse itself?
Either way,
it's plain
(and also
elaborate—
are you
starting to
get it?)
that nothing
you could explain
exists
solely at its
own discretion.
