The little sparrow.
Preening.
Unpuzzled by the complex levers of ending things.
It feels the rust on the dash.
Not the coming fire.
Isn’t it funny.
The thing that can hold a universe.
Is the same thing that
can’t.

Before the deal.
long before the stack...
wasn't there a shadow pact?
A cold wind.
We offer more than cash.
We offer life.
A breath.
A currency that won’t - can’t - buy me an exit.
The dealer just nods.
He has all the time.
And the cold, mathematical equations.

We build reality
from the corner of the eye.
the sky isn't a roof,
it's a mirror.
We are the architecture,
and the foundation is always
what's directly,
next to,
the self.

A mandatory grin
is a slow suicide
of the chin.
Service with a smile
is just a corpse
in a party hat.
If you aren’t there
the coffee
tells on you.
Truth is messy.
Lies are
decaf.

The concrete demands a vow of silence.
Stay a shadow
and the lease is free.
But the second you spill
your inner light
the world wants to see
some ID.
Static is stable.
Signal is expensive.
The grid ignores the passenger
but bills the pilot
for every unmapped turn.
Evolution is a surcharge
on the unauthorized.

The rain, not wet.
Just heavy.
You stand, open-handed.
But it’s the shape of what isn’t there that crushes.
A phantom hilt.
A missed grip.
The silent architecture of 'what if.'
Congratulations.
You are fully, perfectly conscious.
Of the exact tool you do not possess.
Right when you absolutely must have it.
You can draw the perfect blueprint for a bridge.
While standing, soaked, in a mudslide.
Knowledge is a sharp blade.
But who gave the toddler a scalpel?
