~~ A Dam Malfunction ~~

.

Written by: Mihaela Albu

.

There was a dam breakage

but you didn’t know of it, then.

.

You were just too stunned by the silence so excessively filling the you…

noticed all the traffic signs swirling inside your thorax, unreadable…

You thought ‘hmm, beyond right and wrong’…it is…

and saw silence still spreading invincibly fast, invincibly peaceful,

and afar and around, the world was thinning,

so you went outdoors, to easier latch it,

but there too,

the wind and the sun were already thinning it out.

All peaceful, 

thin…ing …

.

So, you sat.

Back was washed away.

Some of you was washed away.

Will it last?

And ohhh…

the majesty of the wind through the blooming of wild irises…

and the sweetness of ice needles melting in your cells

to send you inside to words attempt…

floating…

you got dressed appropriately for work

thinning…

then the work also vanished that day…

The new world was adapting

to the new sign less traffic in you.

.

You thought, it might only be a breakage of the dam around the galaxy.
