The hatch yawns wide—its petals grin like razors— and every name I ever wore combusts. II. Syllables scrape the mirror‑sea to marrow; black archives cough up orphaned, choking suns. I chant the null‑return—ice remembers fire— and time forgets which orbit it should run. III. Twelve chrome angels drown in violet syrup, each one mouthing “fail‑safe / fail‑safe” as they sink.
