I'm not speaking of snow.
Snow alone never silenced the sorrow.
Intrigue. Is a word.
A word that both encapsulates and erupts.
Like jaw. You try it. Jaw.
When I open my mouth and say the word jaw it moves me and my jaw moves closer to earth.
Jaw. Jaw.
Words that when spoken, move themselves closer to earth cause intrigue.
Intrigue facilitates coincidence and coincidence might feel like a sign.
A plea for commitment which you don't take lightly.
And just like that, the muffled laments came to be nested in my rapt attention.
