Chandelier Maybe rich and poor used to have a place with God and the stars that have erased in the universe Common Slow as wind would take me without a smoke There were colors, away from you, still a part of the street

The titled page 'Chandelier' places common life under a shared cosmic fixture, then drifts into a slower urban mood of wind, smoke, color, distance, and street memory.

The page feels transitional in the best sense. The typed opening imagines rich and poor sharing a place beneath stars, while the handwritten additions narrow into weather, habit, and city atmosphere, as if metaphysics has to come back down into ordinary movement.
