Where Nothing Happens

here, between myself and myself, God dwells when He flees the world. I found Him once in a forgotten loaf of bread on the steps of a hospice, in an old woman asking forgiveness for simply living. He did not ask who I am. He touched my brow and retreated back into the wound. we do not think. we defend ourselves from thoughts as from a fire burning within.
