Whatever the Night Anticipates

While waiting for the moment
we are here
we are there
sometimes weak sometimes strong

We wait
to say nothing
on this line
between space

We trespass against others and on landscapes
flashing words floating
for better or worse
with every sense except sight

Piles and piles of thoughts under thoughts
even impressions of thoughts
are in the constellations
and their emptiness

is there emptiness
if we look
standing on the edge
of both present and past

Do we know it
like the night anticipates the within
Is the voice a no body
or the patron saint of improbability
