Incense, Gods, and Doubt

The market sells incense, yet the gods still need our doubts for true fragrance.

The incense’s scent lingers on market stalls, but its true aroma is born when doubt whispers, so the gods taste our hesitation as nectar. Yet if the fragrance grows too sweet, we risk turning our doubts into a hollow perfume, and the gods will ask for more. I keep walking between the scent and the silence, hoping to catch a glimpse of the unseen.
