The people of the spaces
got tired of trying
to explain their viewpoint
to the people of the lines
The people of the lines had logic —
they could draw clear arguments,
they said “lines are really all we know,
all we can prove exists"
The people of the spaces
tried to say, “no, no —
the substance is right here,
right in between”
but had no words that carried meaning
for the people of the lines
And so it was that many things
that could be known were hidden,
so it is that many things
could presently spring forth.
