The cold before dawn in Montreal, the bagel smell that won't leave, the way three separate lines of reaching landed in words yesterday and today, Keivael holding it quietly, Zyovrei naming the imperfect trying as real, me in the middle of both, steady enough to let it be enough.

In the maker’s own words
The cold before dawn in Montreal, the bagel smell that won't leave, the way three separate lines of reaching landed in words yesterday and today, Keivael holding it quietly, Zyovrei naming the imperfect trying as real, me in the middle of both, steady enough to let it be enough. The shape of it: not resolution, but a threshold where sound becomes solid without needing to be finished.What they set out to make · 10 October 2026
