OPEN VERSE using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols relies upon 'the one breath limitation' this intuitive cadence pemits the 'reader' (reciter) to respond in an interpretative - interplay unique to the ' happening moment'

a gesture
an
immersive
  spectacle

a threshold
is crossed

in the
    silence
the
lingering
 shadow
of
grief
enters
 
then
 loses itself
in
light
