climax



 a fortuitous temporal alignment


huge jobs
strenuous after eight hours of labor
weeks of tiny steps


tiny projects of a few minutes


stepping into the abyss
face first


the two pieces are finally joined


an exploration in detail


unspeakable thoughts seeing it the first time


it's a treasure hunt
each detail hints to the next
a roadmap of the struggle


each step reveals yet another wonder


for once I'm speechless
