Morphemes.
The minutes that make up my timelessness.
The feelings that make up my heartlessness.
The flames that make up my darkness.
The screams that make up my silence.

On Writing
" I sometimes hold it half a sin
To put in words the grief I feel;
For words, like Nature, half reveal
And half conceal the Soul within.
But, for the unquiet heart and brain,
A use in measured language lies;
The sad mechanic exercise,
Like dull narcotics, numbing pain.
In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,
Like coarsest clothes against the cold:
But that large grief which these enfold
Is given in outline and no more. "
- Lord Alfred Tennyson
[ Chap V, In Memoriam A.H.H ]

In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,
