a space can go nowhere
and find a place anywhere,
it can travel inside a box,
or stay outside the sky.

yet,

fill it with:
things,
people,
dreams,
thoughts,
ideas,
or anything,
a space will disappear;

and when it does vanish,
life is born from what’s left behind,
a space does not come alive until it’s gone.

the end
