This "Gone" fragment leaves only the window wind, a denied willow touch, and the paper's movement as the residue of disappearance.

The page feels like an echo from the fuller "Gone" poems, stripped down until touch and motion are almost all that remain. By denying the willow image, it rejects natural consolation and keeps the scene inside a harder, barer room. The fragment works like a leftover breath, holding onto one image because the rest has already dropped away.

Gone fragment, a single line: window wind is not a willow touch that blows the paper. The unfinished form is part of the poem.
