god i will try simply to listen to sounds polluting the air at 6 in the morning i feel like the skeleton chair strings across the room the hand that makes them tuned leaves me a skeleton chair it only feels like what its not like waking up before any alarms go off and that coffee maker breathes and when i leave it will never breathe again under the same name just outside the door or underneath the window i just kept staring at the floor but i could've turned around i go out only to come back to hear rain dripping through the cracks a note played on an old busted chord organ in the other room - or not i can't tell just try to leave a mark on a wall in the dark to match the resonance of a hollowed out turtle shell and i didn't turn around

mortar 02:43
then sound finally came out and a cold silence was dispelled holes were bored into the sides of it strings were stretched over the shell maintaining an islandness low resolution address clothes draped over the heater just a place to rest my hands the sound seeps through the cracks in the mortar between the bricks in the world searching for purpose low resolution address
