one elderly autumn eve
by Rhyana Fisherhanging hugely in the gloomy dusk
the settled sun x-rays a fossil embryo
in illuminated cream,
periwinkle skeleton outlined.
a million or so years circling earth unhatched
in thrall to gravity
and i
still /feel/ old. 04/17/2010 Author's Note: a found scrap.

love the timeless feeling in the ending, how no matter your thoughts, the feelings are always behind in a great rush and roar you can't really change. |
