The instance of dwelling

On a moment

Or on a question-

That which you know exists

But which you can’t articulate

Is not inertia

But a pause…

We pause to see…

To grasp at the substantial,

The indicative, the meaningful

The instructive.

We dwell not because we don’t want to venture

But because we want to receive

The call to do so…

Or for guidance towards a direction

It’s not our knowledge

But our perceptiveness

That opens us up to

Recourse from a truer word.
