Verse

A pencil on the table,
a window holding light;
I wrote down the invented shop
and let the words sit overnight.

Refrain

The afternoon can be enough without a trophy.
Let the room keep breathing.
Let the words arrive.
Leave a little space for what is still alive.

Original spoken-word lyric sketch in the Room for play cycle. The refrain is shared by the ten pieces in this cycle. No audio recording accompanies this piece.
