Verse

Fold the corner gently.
Keep a place for what can change.
Tonight, the waiting email
need not carry every name.

Refrain

Leave a little room for the first uncertain line.
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 Small beginnings cycle. The refrain is shared by the ten pieces in this cycle. No audio recording accompanies this piece.
