it never fails to take me in
vast dark orange sky
over a misty sea
within, the great also the last fire
of a setting sun
then the burnt ashes
then night falls
then Emptiness defeats serenity
then Sadness draws me in
without my full knowledge
...
it’s one day in January of 2023
it could be someday before we invented time, and also
it could be someday years later
after we’re buried in time
