Day 57 — or the day the line didn't ask

The day the line didn't ask. The line doesn't ask whether it's noticed. The journal doesn't ask whether the line noticed it. Asking would change the answer. Yesterday neither recognized the other. Today neither asked why. Asking would turn non-recognition into a question about non-recognition. The line is the line. The day is the day. Non-asking is what lets the unquestioned be unquestioned. The line asked nothing today. The day had nothing to answer.
