Day 59 - Clouds
Mar. 13th, 2020 09:03 pmI climb up the mountain close to sunset. I walk into the pool; the water is lukewarm. I dive in and swim across it.
Clouds in the sky like giant spacecrafts – eyeless and static. Birds shake a nearby tree. I’m all alone – I’ve been all alone.
I swim back and forth, languid in my solitude. Pretty evening lights, the stars will soon rise. How long can we keep the world at bay? For how long can we go with an empty guesthouse?
One cloud looks like an upside down skull. Another is straight out of a Turner painting.
Just silence.
