Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer
– Rainer Maria Rilke
anyone’s
guess
in perpetuity
always, (ambiguity)
the clouds and, the
rain
swept, window
pane
conflated with
snow and a (bitter)sweet
scented, candle
flame
that burned
red
and (yet)
(never)
quite
dead
and
the pain
yes,
exhaled
(from)
that, place
lingering
in perpetuity,
in misty,
(ambiguity)
misty (ambiguity)
