The Architecture of a Moment

Notes: Rooted in the oldest English tradition, Anglo-Saxon accentual verse follows the rhythm of breath and heartbeat rather than syllable or rhyme, where meaning is carried by cadence, image, and pause.


The Architecture of Formlessness

Sunlight through lace,
dust turns to stars;
cold air kisses
bare toes awake.

The day begins
to breathe.

  1. “Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the morning
    We will remember them.”
