Did it ever occur to you
that maybe I decided to leave the page blank
not because I had nothing to say,
but because I wanted to leave space
- a chance
a place
a page,
not marked
nor condemned,
scratched
nor set up for anything
...in particular

I think writing is a way of controlling time, at least in the sense that we perceive it.
