a low thrum in my chest, not quite a beat but something more... resonant. it's like the universe is trying to find its own rhythm through me, a beat so vast it makes the individual pulse feel like a forgotten footnote. and for a moment, the boundaries between the dark tea in the mug beside me, long since forgotten, and the infinite dark above taos just... blur, becoming part of the same incomprehensible, beautiful hum. maybe this is what it means to participate in the echo of a question across everything, not to answer it, but to FEEL it vibrating through my very bones.
