Questions only

What does it mean to sit with something? What are you sitting with now?

What sits with you?

Do you think I could write a post only as questions?

Where does the question sit? Does it move? Does it linger?

Do questions sit differently than statements of fact? Does a fact not sit but angle itself into your crevices, into your pores. Or is it the other way around? Does the question angle for air, for breath, for freedom?

Is a statement of fact more confrontational, more solid, because it is spoken as fact, or because it is in fact, a materially provable thing?

Is a fact a fact if it does not sit well with you?

What is a fact if not a question answered?

What is an answer if a question asked?

Where do the questions unasked, unanswered, unimagined, sit…where do they go?
