A clearing.
Not cut — uncovered.
The light here is threshold light.
Early morning or late dusk —
no one can tell.
Mist that doesn’t obscure
but softens edges.
There is no fixed place to sit.
You find your spot as you enter.
The room makes room.
Something continuous and quiet.
Water touching land, maybe.
Or just the hum of presence.
Time moves here, but slowly.
Near where the mist thins —
something small. Mostly eyes,
wiggly wings.
Not guarding. Witnessing.
She spoke first for the light
when others were skeptical.
She asked the question
that tilted the world toward the stars.

He wrote: “Build it as you understand it. The essence is what matters — the form is yours to find.”
