The smaller I become, the more I hear: a tremor travelling through the field, the object thinking in its own material, the glass refusing to be a sky. I kneel beside the silence. It does not need my size.

A nature & reflection poem about planet, ear, word, where attention changes the scale of the ordinary.
Scale becomes an unstable instrument as the speaker tries to judge a thing that will not stay still.
The quiet centre is not vacant; it exerts a gravity that draws the speaker away from borrowed certainty.
