Inspiration piece

One Page to Fill a Life
By Stefanie A. Shilling
Response

some only get as far as the title
some a few stanzas

some empty every ink bottle
grind down every bit of lead

embedded hands from a grandfather clock
a grandmother’s broach

parts of a piccolo
like fossils burrowed in pulp

leaving no space untouched
drenched by the blackest night

leaving behind
the unmistakable patina of time
