prompt # 5

an elliptical — a time capsule

emptying the abyss

leaving a silence of utter stillness.

 

The space left

a starry sky

lighting up the atmosphere.

 

when the time capsule reverses

are we going back, forward, or far far away?

perhaps we stay put

 

only to see, to feel, to touch

our own mirroring of life

 

Reflection on a ice, glass surface

snug between two almonds.

Mirroring images

Take a breath.

Breathe!

inhaled a crisp chilly clear of a night.

Tasted like freshwater

gave your body  —

full of life.
