Syllables of Eternity

By Vaishnavi Alur

A syllable lasts a second. Eternity is forever. Putting them side by side is a paradox-and that's the point. This book exists in that paradox. It's about mortal experiences-grief, love, doubt-trying to stretch into something eternal. It's about impermanence trying to leave a mark. The book is a kind of grasping. Like trying to hold fog. These poems are an attempt to give shape to things that don't want to be shaped- pain, longing, divinity, absence. The syllables aren't solutions. They're the evidence that I tried. "Syllables of Eternity" is just here to say: here's all I could carry from the abyss. It may be small, but it's real.
