What if holonomy is not primitive curvature, but the local wake left when a finite world must re-enter what it cannot fully hold?This paper develops a finite-vantage account of holonomy from the geometry of local posterior readout. A held object induced by Poisson flow generates a canonical posterior, whose score structure defines a Fisher metric, a square-root state, and an innovation sector for re-anchored transport. In the ultraviolet contact limit, the local posterior converges to a universal Poisson/Cauchy law, making it possible to isolate the natural translation, scale, and shear modes of first contact. Within this framework, log-depth becomes a genuine geometric fiber, uniform expansion contributes only to scale drift, and trace-free shear emerges as the first true source of local nonclosure. The central result is that innovation curvature is exactly Fisher area, so holonomy appears not as an assumed background feature, but as the measurable residue of finite re-entry. The same construction then extends from physical geometry to semantic geometry, suggesting a common finite-vantage origin for both physical and interpretive holonomy.
