Discordance

The pages are colder than ice. Your fingers stick to them as you leaf through. The notes speak of the space between stars, describing it as a silence. This paper is an investigation into that which exists in a void: it explores the anti-logic that fills the gaps between possibility; lists conclusions which, if allowed to become true, subvert natural law. You cannot focus on the mathematical proofs – frost forms on your eyelashes; your chest aches as your blood thickens with cold.
