And this philosophy,

A slang
Of light through the pane,

A metaphysical slip
Of the noon.

The 
Void 

Approximately where,

Is a belly flop
Holding a broken guitar. 

It won’t stay long. It did not evolve to stay long.

3. “A metaphysical slip of the moon.”
   I love this piece. But it’s too short, I want more! ☺️
   I guess that’s a good technique though. To stop short, to not give it all, if anything, away.
