Made Short
       

1

Like us, the quanta
spend most of their time

in limbo

where time isn't
theirs

and there is nothing
to acquire

until nothing
sends them flying

and they get
realized.

2

In impact studies, crash
courses, tell-alls.

3

In the dream,
I was led to believe
that memorabilia
would fill the canyon, rubble
I could walk across
unharmed
