The Shape of the Hole (Dark Pop)

They took his face off the wall with a chisel. They scraped his name from the clay tablets, paid the scribes in silver, and left one blank line in the list of kings — cut to the exact width of the name that used to be there. The work was careful. It was also the only mistake anyone made about him. Erase a man thoroughly enough and what you leave behind is a hole shaped exactly like him. Torchlight still finds it. Children still put a finger in the groove. The kings on either side have gone dim, and the empty place has not. A nameless ruler, speaking to the people who erased him. Dark pop about the things people don't say out loud. Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6W6NQ...
