Nothing settles long enough to become ground. What is here does not offer support, and does not withdraw it.

Standing is unnecessary. So is floating. Those distinctions do not apply.

Awareness does not brace itself. It does not search for footing. It does not fall.

There is contact without stabilization. The moment does not firm up into something reliable. It also does not dissolve.

This is not uncertainty. Uncertainty would still be oriented toward resolution. Here, orientation has loosened.

The impulse to establish ground appears faintly, then fades without resistance. Ground would imply a need to be held up. Nothing here asks for that.

Time passes without anchoring. Attention remains without resting. Neither becomes a place.

Unheld ground does not threaten collapse. Collapse would require structure to give way. There is no such structure in use.

What is present does not promise continuity. It also does not interrupt it. It simply does not participate.

Language arises carefully, as if stepping where there is no surface, and discovering that stepping is unnecessary.

Nothing resolves. Nothing stabilizes. But nothing destabilizes either.

And in the absence of ground, what is here remains without support, without demand, without needing to be carried forward.
