Entering the night

ENTERING THE NIGHT (D A D F G E)

It’s calm and sunny but the rain is coming. Humming like a moth. Gnawing at the light.

I can feel them looming. A suffocating blanket pressing me like a cheeseymite sandwich in a toasted sandwich maker.

 

Alone but not really. The sky unravels as we walk deeper into its jaws.

An empty belly. Stars appear. Silence incrementally getting thicker.

 

Side by side.

Face to face.

Swallowing the light.

Entering the night.
