Archaic toiling Through endless character streams To drown deeper still Beneath black and white waters Until I breathe symbolly
To grasp at the root This longing for the seasons Hidden deep, deep down To say it’s just “Natural,” Would only scratch the leaf-tops

Just for a moment To glimpse from dusty pages A single white flash Tenuous seconds follow Until a roaring reply
