There were axioms in the microgaps
and a man could nod his head
a long time, seeing what he saw
There were axioms in the microgaps
and a man could nod his head
a long time, seeing what he saw

These were things one happened upon,
senseless crystal bits
fixed for one second
for once and for all



Whys sunk to why at all
decomposed as quickly
as skybound life
rose from the rotting
