The Fragment
Pressed onto white cardstock, the ink curves slow and certain –
as if the hand that wrote it already knew the reader wouldn’t rush.
The fragment doesn’t accuse. It observes.
A message left in the tempo between questions –
when you begin to wonder whether time has been listening all along.

Rarity: Singular Artifact
Reflections from the Weaver
I wrote this fragment on a day I felt time pushing back at me –
not with anger, but with indifference.
I kept checking clocks, calendars, to-do lists…
and none of them made me feel more in control.
Just more out of sync.
But then I paused.
And I realized it wasn’t time that was cruel.
It was the story I’d wrapped around it. A story of never enough, always behind, try harder.
This fragment is a thread I pulled from that moment:
A reminder that time responds to belief,
to rhythm,
to how gently or urgently we move through our own lives.
It’s not the enemy.
It’s the mirror.
