(s)ketch-up line

I want to draw a line of consciousness and the absence of it.

I want to use a pencil, as it can be erased an infinite amount of times.

I want to assume that one never actually stops drawing, but that sometimes the line gets thicker or lighter, that maybe there’s an “eraser effect” to it

or that it’s not that easy, and definitely more difficult than looking back at the line and just

letting go

for once.

Because for thousands of reasons and non-reasons things are not just the way they are but also the way they’ve been

and sun is pure bliss, and winter will be over too late, and words just won’t come if you don’t listen to them, if you keep erasing that line.

What if you’d stop everything, right now,

and went out to catch up with yourself?
