Les Souris

The Mice
The Quiet Attrition

The Quatrain

Vois-tu ces rongeurs ? Gare les pleurs, Ou de tout ton bien Il ne reste rien.

The mice warn of gradual loss: what is neglected may be nibbled away until little remains.

The Archetype

Not dramatic loss, but neglect — what goes unattended gets nibbled away until little remains. This is entropy's quiet version, worth taking as seriously as any louder threat, since it does its damage precisely by staying unnoticed.

A Practice For Today

Give attention today to one small thing you've been letting quietly slide, before more of it is gone.
