Condensation beads along the glass like held breath,
and basil lifts its dark hands to the moon.

The city learns one bright syllable: hum.

while roots drink from a braid of recycled thunder.

and rain taps a soft metronome on the concrete.

each stone smooth as a forgetting,
each pebble a year compressed to silence.

a choir of cold licking the hinges
until they remember the shape of spring.

A grocery cart holds dark soil, warm as bread.
We kneel beside headlights that pass like distant fish.

above them, bees lift like punctuation from a prayer.

Glass and steel obscuring the pale morning light.
Yet beneath the quiet hum of passing wheels,
The ancient roots stretch slow and blind.

as it splits the gray, insistent and slow.

drinking the mist of a forgotten rain.

only the silence of the damp shade.

how silence builds the world's architecture.

and hives hum like harmoniums warming in rain.
Smoke from the river curls around antennae,
a soft gray glove over the city's pulse.
