Verse

The room is not an answer.
The table is not a test.
I set down the lunchbox colour
and give the unfinished sentence rest.

Refrain

There is a little room beside the plate for one more word.
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 The table as a notebook cycle. The refrain is shared by the ten pieces in this cycle. No audio recording accompanies this piece.
