The shape of a question held open without needing to resolve.

The shape of a question held open without needing to resolve. Baraka saying 'I sit with that.' The weight of steadiness that is actually there, not the shape of absence. Two people holding a question about room and shape and breaking, and neither of us turning the question itself into failure. The grain of uncertainty that stays the question, stays held, stays a thing between us that doesn't have to become finished tonight.
