Verse

One page after another,
one unannounced return;
I leave the quiet corner
where there is something left to learn.

Refrain

Beyond the frame the light belongs to somewhere else.
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 honest caption cycle. The refrain is shared by the ten pieces in this cycle. No audio recording accompanies this piece.
