The Three Oddest Words
When I pronounce the word Future,
the first syllable already belongs to the past.

The Three Oddest Words
When I pronounce the word Future,
the first syllable already belongs to the past.
When I pronounce the word Silence,
I destroy it.
When I pronounce the word Nothing,
I make something no non-being can hold.
