The second coming fails to come, fails its eventuality and our expectation. Maybe what we are facing is a real hope that cannot know in any way, and can only be blind to, what is hoped for. Maybe the not-coming is in fact its very eventuality, is what the hope it brings forth really meant. Or maybe the coming is not prepared enough because we are not well-unprepared. All is in a mist. Yet all is glittering, gleaming, speaking of something that no one understands but may come to articulate itself shortly after.
The 6-month interval is sheer waiting for nothing.
And now is the second second coming. The same unexpected. The same of that for which we will never be ready. And the same as before will we welcome the coming.
It is the coming that makes the waiting waiting.
