"
how
do
you
hide
from
nothingness?"
he
asks
me
.
i
don't
have
an
answer
.
he
sits
behind
a
small
desk
,
refers
to
it
,
then
slides
his
spine
sideways
.
that's
how
he
wakes
up
:
to
another
young
stranger
on
the
couch
.
he
isn't
even
that
old
.
probably
thirty
-eight
minutes
.
it's
not
catharsis_
if
being
away
from
people
is
the
calm
you
need
.
and
there
is
something
psalm
-like
about
holding
a
song
in
your
hands
at
4
:21.
because
4
:22
seems
wasteful.
i'm
not
the
one
making
noise
.
it's
someone
else
with
their
feet
under
the
stage
.
